ChatGPT Coming to VWs so You Can Talk to Your Car

Jan 08, 2024 - cnet.com
Volkswagen has announced a partnership with Cerence, an AI company, to integrate voice-controlled interfaces into its cars. The technology, which combines Cerence's large language model (LLM) with OpenAI's ChatGPT, will be able to handle thousands of auto-related questions and tasks, making cars easier to use and more entertaining. If Cerence's LLM cannot answer a question, it will be handed off to ChatGPT. The AI technology will be available for some VW cars in North America and Europe, including the Golf models, ID.71, ID.4, ID.5, ID.3 electric vehicles, and the new Tiguan3 and Passat3 models.

The partnership is part of Volkswagen's strategy to integrate more technology into its cars. The technology will be released to new and existing cars on the road through an over-the-air software update. Cerence has access to OpenAI's ChatGPT technology through a partnership with Microsoft. The companies have not yet provided details on the timeline or pricing of the technology's release.
