  • "I'm concerned that this seems to be a prevailing attitude in car design: immersing the driver into the car, with less focus on their awareness of other people outside the car (or those peoples' safety). We're dealing with increasing amounts road rage, distracted driving, and car crashes: will all of this technology help fix these problems? Why does a car need to be a gaming platform, or a wellness experience, or an AI companion? I'd rather less people were dying on the road, and designers could play a large role in making that happen.People are struggling to afford cars right now anyway, car manufacturers should be focusing on simple, practical vehicles that provide a lot of utility at low cost. There are plenty of opportunities to create expressive, interesting cars without resorting to all of this expensive, distracting claptrap. Lots of people just want to get from A to B without breaking the bank."
