R/audi is the icing on the cake here.

Modern Audis are the GenAI of cars. Bland interiors with touch screens for everything. Great for marketing to those who don't actually like cars. Inferior in usability to what they had 10-15 years ago. Audis in general also aren't very much drivers cars. Weight distribution is abysmal compared to BMW, though that's because of design decisions they made last millennium.

I swear my 19 year old Audi is better than what they're putting out now. Sure at 400k km with no transmission service I'm having to rebuild the auto transmission. And there's rust. But it has character and all the functionality I use is behind buttons and dials, the screen is informative only (though it is high-res enough that you can buy a CarPlay/AndroidAuto kit that that runs on the original, non-touch screen).

And I hate Audis, used to especially hate the generation I'm currently driving because I'm of the opinion that they stopped knowing how to build cars when the millennium changed. But fuck me if it isn't way better than the shit they're putting out now.

I need an explanation. AI is driving up the prices, right? What do those communities have to do with AI?

The person just seems like a regular right wing cunt.

GenAI is right wing. Elon is a gen AI CEO
