Why are computer drivers so important to update?

Question

I get it in the context of a very outdated one, but a driver from a month ago shouldn’t be leading to crashes, so why update?

It ends up feeling like the driver works fine till a new one comes out and it starts failing.

They aren’t super important, and most likely nothing will happen if you don’t update it, but you should because it makes the driver better, and there are no other downsides, other than it being annoying and a big-time consumer.
