Alex Rawitz, Co-founder at DIMO dishes on the messy world of device connectivity, arguing that a slick, universal protocol could be the secret sauce for smarter cities and even *smarter* cars. Yes, we throw a little bit of shade at the automakers who’ve dumped billions into connected vehicles only to get lackluster returns, thanks to clunky apps that drivers don’t vibe with—looking at you, GM! DIMO’s big brain move? A Tesla-inspired developer platform and an email-like protocol that lets all the car tech play nice, no awkward translations needed. Alex and his team are stirring the pot with a vision where your ride’s black box chats effortlessly with the cloud, making drivers spoiled rotten with seamless wizardry. Also, DIMO has so many cool partnerships going on, you'll now be able to get a vehicle warranty and cash back on carbon offset credits just by sharing some data from your car's "vault" on DIMO. Plus, you'll hear our cheeky nod to the auto industry’s global showdown, where Asian EVs are flexing hard, while the U.S. scrambles to keep its cool in the hardware-software hustle. And yes! We did go get some Brooklyn pizza after we recorded this. (Thank god). The place was literally called "Best Pizza" - go figure!
