Ezinkampanini ezinkulu, kubonakala kucacile ukuthi umkhiqizo omkhulu olandelayo uhlobene nemoto. I-Google ne-Apple sebevele bakhiphe i-Android Auto neCarPlay futhi kubonakala sengathi bobabili basebenza emotweni ezimele. Kepha kubonakala sengathi akubona bodwa abacabanga ngakho. Abanye abantu ababaluleke kangako nabo balungisa lolu hlobo lwemoto, njengesigebenga esidumile uGeorge Hotz, aka I-GeoHot, owaziwa ngokuba yingxenye yesigameko se-jailbreak noma ukukhipha i-PS3 esikhathini esedlule, nokuze kwamletha enkantolo.
Sifunde ngonyaka odlule ukuthi iGeoHot ihlele ukudala eyayo isoftware ezimele yemoto futhi wasungula inkampani yeComma ngenhloso yokuba ngomunye wamaphayona ekuhlomiseni izimoto ezinobuhlakani. Ekuqaleni singacabanga ukuthi umfana ongafinyeleli eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu akakwazanga ukuncintisana ne-Apple, iGoogle noma iTesla, kepha amahemuhemu asevele esabalala okuthi iGeoHot ithole imali yephrojekthi yakhe.
IGeoHot iseduze nokwakha isoftware yayo ezimele yemoto
Iphrojekthi yemoto kaHotz ezishayelayo kungenzeka ukuthi ibinobunzima obunzima ebuntwaneni, kepha i-CEO yeTesla Motors U-Elon Musk wamqaphela futhi saze samnikeza umsebenzi, izindaba esisheshe sathola ngazo sonke futhi ezenza kwaziwa kahle i-GeoHot, Comma kanye nephrojekthi yabo yemoto ezimele ezosebenzisa uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-Ubuntu ukuze lusebenze. Njengamanje, inkampani inenani elilinganiselwa ku-$20 million, okuyinto engeyimbi enkampanini ezalwe ngokubhejwa.
IGeoHot nayo udale iqembu elibalulekile emizameni yakhe yokwenza imoto ezimele ethokozela ubuhle. I-hacker edumile nayo yajoyinwa nguYanus Saatchi, onguDokotela wePhilosophy of Artificial Intelligence. Futhi ingxenye yeqembu nguJake Smith, umuntu obalulekile emphakathini waseBitcoin. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uHotz uhlela nokwandisa iqembu ngaphambi kwehlobo ngokuqasha abantu abanolwazi lokufunda ngomshini kanye nensimu yehadiwe yabathengi.
IGeoHot nethimba lakhe abanazo izindlela zokuziphatha okwamanje, kodwa bakholelwa ukuthi iComma izokwazi ukuletha okuthile ngasekupheleni konyaka nokuthi inhloso enkulu 'ube ngumhlinzeki wesoftware wabenzi bezimoto nabahlinzeki".
