The automotive industry has long operated on a “not invented here” (NIH) philosophy. If a bolt, piston, or radio wasn’t designed within the walls of a traditional OEM, it was viewed with suspicion. But as vehicles evolve into data centers on wheels, that insular approach is hitting a brick wall.

Every few decades, the tech industry shifts so dramatically that the landscape becomes unrecognizable. We saw it when IBM lost control of the PC to Microsoft and Intel, and again when the smartphone rendered the desktop an afterthought for the masses.
