The ChatGPT integration beta is intended to produce more natural conversations and comprehensive answers when drivers speak to the voice assistant in their cars.
Mercedes-Benz is integrating OpenAI’s ChatGPT into its vehicles.
The AI chatbot is coming to vehicles equipped with the car maker’s MBUX infotainment system via a beta program for US users.
MBUX vehicles already feature a voice assistant that can respond to various commands, such as making a phone call or displaying map directions. However, Mercedes says the ChatGPT integration promises to make the voice assistant even smarter.
“While most voice assistants are limited to predefined tasks and responses, ChatGPT leverages a large language model to greatly improve natural language understanding and expand the topics to which it can respond,” Mercedes said in the announcement.
