I find it incredible that GM (or Rivian, or anyone else trying this) will be able to develop something that works as well as carplay/android auto and maintain it for the life of the vehicle. Phone manufacturers are known for better software departments than car makers and they routinely fail miserably at this. Even Microsoft has failed at embedded a number of times despite knowing how to maintain software over time. It takes a lot more resources and talent than people assume. It took Tesla 15 years, a headquarters in Palo Alto, and tens of billions of dollars to get to the point where maybe they have a chance to pull it off. I don't see these competitors getting ready to invest those kinds of resources.
