I'm keeping a skeptical eye on them. I really like the concept obviously but remaining cautious for a number of reasons.

Obviously as the other replies mention, Jeff Bezos is one of the initial investors, but that's also true of Rivian. The important distinction is you don't have to get the massive tablet computer/nav/infotainment system that would be susceptible to these OTA updates.

Another reason is I was looking through available jobs that they were hiring for and a lot were AI-centric. It was unclear as to why, but obviously that just doesn't sit right. Regardless of whether they use it for customer support, automotive design, or infotainment embedding, I can't imagine a good reason and it was more than one type of position.
