Volkswagen is bringing ChatGPT into its cars and SUVs


Volkswagen, with help from with software partner Cerence, are bringing ChatGPT into vehicles in the second quarter of 2024.

Like Mercedes, Volkswagen has integrated ChatGPT into the backend of its IDA voice assistant, which drivers can use to control the infotainment, navigation and air conditioning, or to answer general knowledge questions. ChatGPT will push beyond those basic capabilities, Volkswagen says, offering up examples like “Enriching conversations, clearing up questions, interacting in intuitive language, receiving vehicle-specific information, and much more—purely hands-free.” Cerence CEO Stefan Ortmanns said the two companies will “explore collaboration to design a new, large language model (LLM)-based user experience as the basis of Volkswagen’s next-generation in-car assistant.”
