German automotive giant Mercedes-Benz has taken a step that will change the balance in the sector. The company has integrated ChatGPT, the popular chat bot developed by Open AI, in more than 900,000 cars. With this integration, some Mercedes-Benz owners will be able to use ChatGPT through their vehicle’s voice assistant.
According to the statements made by Mercedes-Benz, ChatGPT integration is available in beta as of today. The chat bot, which can only be used by Mercedes-Benz owners in the USA for now, will expand to many countries in the future. Meanwhile; Note that ChatGPT integration is an optional feature. Unwilling Mercedes-Benz owners will be able to deactivate the artificial intelligence-supported bot.
It will be activated with the command “Hey Mercedes”!
Consumers who want to activate ChatGPT, which can be experienced in vehicles using the multimedia system that Mercedes-Benz calls “MBUX”, will need to use the voice assistant. Saying the company’s iconic “Hey Mercedes” command, the vehicle owner will indicate that he wants to be involved in the ChatGPT beta process. After this stage, ChatGPT integration will be carried out wirelessly. The user will be able to chat with ChatGPT upon completion of the integration.
Meanwhile; With the move on the Mercedes-Benz front, you might have thought that ChatGPT could be trained thanks to vehicle owners. However, such is not the case. The company says that it first anonymizes all the voice command data it collects on its vehicles, and then stores it in a database called “Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Cloud”.
