I'm not a fan. Here's my take:
1 - this is no longer transportation. it's turning passengers into a captive audience.
2 - popups on the full-canopy HUD--the /entire/ glass is a display. how long do you think it will be before this gets sold as ad space? Now you don't go to billboards, they come to you.
3 - this is not a driving experience, this sounds more like a 'hostage' experience--to the AI and whatever "goodies" STA wants to subject you to.
If I want a concierge-like travel experience, I get on a tour bus or take a taxi and say "scenic route, tell me about your city".
This will also be a hacker's delight. Can you imagine how much damage bad actors can do once they gain access to vehicles with this tech? It's not an if, only a when.
Consider first just how great Dodge's mere theft deterrence has been, and now they think they can manage security at a much bigger scale?
Also consider, in the past 10 years, their website merely displaying their current model year offerings has typically been 8-12+ months out of date--and yet we're to believe they have the tech chops to do all this, and do it well?

I fully expect a self driving car to kill me in the future. Every big drop was later in the day as we all sat impatiently waiting for it. Looks like this dropped at 6am because they knew no one was really looking forward to it. Says concept based on if they get enough people interested in it to build it. This was the work of a group of people the last few years when they thought we wanted EVs and sense the work was done they thought they would share. Coming never to a showroom near you

These things are all over Scottsdale. My wife actually got in one when she was there for work. I said no way in hell!

The government and auto-makers, have bailed on human freedoms and choices. People have become indoctrinated to be lazy and believe they need help with the most basic thoughts and physical abilities. I do not comply, capitulate, or cooperate with their thoughts or mandates. Most laws, are merely suggestions to me.
