This is the best summary I could come up with:
The more innovation-minded people in the auto industry have heralded the advent of the software-defined car.
It's been spun as a big benefit for consumers, too—witness the excitement among Tesla owners when that company adds a new video game or childish noise to see why the rest of the industry joined the hype train.
The EV startup, which makes well-regarded pickup trucks and SUVs, as well as delivery vans for Amazon, pushed out a new over-the-air software update on Monday.
But all is not well with 2023.42; the update stalls before it completes installing, taking out both infotainment and main instrument display screens.
