GM wants to add ChatGPT-like digital assistant to its cars

General Motors (GM) is working on a digital assistant powered by a ChatGPT-like language model for its vehicle brands, Semafor reports.

Its vision is for the digital assistant to support drivers in situations where they would have previously referred to the vehicle's owner manual, among other functions.
 
The system could also explain several vehicle warning lights and give guidance on whether to pull over to address it immediately or whether it can wait until they get home.
Weird article. Like that ^ quote doesn't need any chatgpt stuff. Emergency light goes on, infotainment panel displays / plays a relevant message. Feels like they're leveraging this tech for the most mundane purposes where it doesn't need to be used.
 
What's ChatGTP got to do with it? They could have easily done this 10 years ago if they wanted to.

if (tyre_pressure == LOW):
voice("your tyre is flat")
if (petrol_low_indicator == TRUE):
voice ("You need to fill up")
 
ChatGPT thinks it's a good idea. Along with the usual escape clause.
