Really happy to see that the racist comments were censored. Let’s coexist okay?

Nothing in that article about diversity. SMH
If you worked in Warren or in the plants, you would see a great mix of people.
Saying, "white male americans" are endangered is absolutely false.
Unless you are specifically talking about software roles?
Either way, divisive racist talk is sad and unwelcome.

Sounds like ultracruise is dead in the water. Looks like the only thing left is something incredibly simple like supercruise. My money is that GM bean counters will prefer a COTS solution from Bosch or Aptiv. SC team will be slashed and repurposed into validators, integrators, and calibrators. If you want to do AV, go to a supplier. Watching GM do software, is like watching two old people f-ck.

Cruise is a toxic workplace.

Mary will not resign.
If you work in product development, you know we develop and test new products all the time that can go into production, OR get cancelled.
If we sent everything to market, it would be disastrous.
Did you ever hear the business expression “fail fast”? You can succeed without failing and learning from those failures.

Billions of dollars in losses to make an unusable product that they haven't been able to get working over many years.

Will Mary resign?

Why did GM allow Cruise to become such a mess?
