I don't see an advantage to maintaining separate digital lives on my iPhone and my vehicles. Apple CarPlay will always be a sought-after feature. In conclusion: I won't be buying GM or Tesla. (fwiw: I've tried Tesla and was freaked out--and injured--by its driving decisions. I'm also not a fan of cars that need subscriptions.)

"This list of features and content doesn't even account for the company's full self-driving service"
Sorry, but that should read Fully Self-Driving with caps (or FSD), because it's merely a product name for a feature that isn't fully self-driving, despite nearly a decade of promises, price increases, and dropped promises on older Tesla hardware.

Relevant patent applications should start to be published soon after WWDC by the US PTO, as well, when the standard 1-year embargo ends on each one filed by Apple.

Musk has already caused too much damage and will still have too much control.

Lack of on-device controls seems like a plus, since a professional wouldn't want to futz with a hot mic.

True, but when a sneeze or cough is coming on, being able to hit the mute switch can sometimes be very handy.

I’m sure pros know exactly where the mute button is on their controller board or keyboard—zero risk of accidentally bumping the mic or its mount.
