How is this a "game changer" (I hate that term). I would be surprised if every auto maker hasn't been doing this for a LOOOOOOONG time. It can't be new.

I can't speak for ALL manufacturers, but the "Big 3" all do this, and have been doing so for at least 15 years, and it didn't seem to be new then either.

"Game Changer" is just one of those youtube / social media click bait code phrases. I have found that the more hyperbolic the title, the less likely I am to find the video of interest or value.

This video, like all the volter ones, is just recycled clickbait.

Rivian didn’t invent their “lab car”.

I worked with Vidya when she was at Xilinx. This reminds me of how we used massive FPGA arrays to emulate our entire SoC design to make sure it was correct by design before we even got silicon back. It wasn't a new concept but she baked it into the culture of our engineering org and it was a big "game changer" for us internally. I imagine there is similar going on here. She is takibg the scrappy Rivian engineering org that is probably mostly "hackers" and turning them into mature software and systems engineers.
