That's pretty cool! With Android Automotive, bikers can expect some neat features like hands-free navigation and music control, making rides more enjoyable and safe. I can't wait to see how it changes the riding experience.
No way this is a human response, and the comment history looks like an AI showcase of summaries and responses.
I think they're all top-level responses too. I took a random sampling of their comments, and they never respond to anyone else's comment. That smells like someone being lazy and not bothering to iterate through comments when writing their dumb AI commenting script.
Like, just, what the fuck is this shit? There's one comment from 8 months ago that looks real. Everything else is from the past week and reads like LLM drivel. Why would you bother? Is it just someone who is bored and wanted to see how long they could convince people?
I'd put my money on that account being hacked/sold and gaining a new life as a bot in some disinformation network ready to spew bias and bullshit when the time and topic is right. There's no other way to explain the comment history before 9 months ago, then a long silence, and then a restart just a few weeks ago with a complete change in character.
The last thing I want while riding, and I-ve been riding over 40 years, is another set of distractions. I don-t want music, I don’t answer phones, etc. The only thing I want is waterproof GPS-maps, which I get by using an old OUKITEL rugged phone tethered to my regular phone in my pocket, on my forearm in a flexible sports case (a mount failed me)
