Former Apple executive Chris Lattner leaves Tesla after 6 months on the job

I have a gut feeling that the Tesla software is a bowl of spaghetti in desperate need of a rewrite.
Not to worry, Tesla can license a Car OS from Apple soon. Tesla needs to get rid of that dated console UI anyway.
Apple has some of the best software engineers in the world and most importantly, Apple has adult supervision over it's projects and they know how to go to market with new products.

Amazon willing to allow Apple's Siri on Echo speakers, executive says
I am not surprised. I guess Amazon paid close attention to the WWDC keynote.
1. The SIRI voices use of machine learning to clearly say Sunny, Sunny and Sunny in intelligent human "tones" it's simply an amazing feat of artificial intelligence. It's NOT a recording folks, SIRI appears to know about human tones and emotions. "I love machine learning because I am a Machine.....Learning."
2. SIRI supports the most languages and as Apple works on translations, HomePod can become the ultimate translator. It would take years of work for Amazon to catch up in terms of ML.
Time will tell. -
