AI in Your Car: ChatGPT is Coming to Volkswagen, BMW, and More
VW presents new functionality in cooperation with technology partner Cerence at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas (USA).
- Volkswagen, BMW, and Mercedes announced they are integrating ChatGPT into their vehicles’ voice assistants.
- This will allow drivers to have more natural conversations with their car, controlling entertainment, navigation, and getting answers to general knowledge questions.
- Personal data is protected: ChatGPT does not gain access to vehicle information.
- The partnership shows how AI is moving beyond our phones and computers into everyday objects.
Soon, talking to your car won’t just be about changing the radio station. Thanks to a new partnership with OpenAI, you’ll be able to ask your VW for a fun fact, get recipe ideas for dinner, or have a complex conversation, all without taking your hands off the wheel.
This is a key step for AI to become an ambient, background technology in our lives. It’s no longer an app you open, but a layer of intelligence built into the devices and machines you already use.
