AI is being deployed in places previously unthinkable
French car manufacturer DS is integrating ChatGPT as part of a pilot. The brand uses his 20,000 customers in five European countries as guinea pigs. Over the next six months, we plan to remotely update various DS models to provide features and understand demand for our services.
What is ChatGPT?
*deep sigh* I’m talking about that artificial intelligence programming that a lot of people were using a few months ago to write funny emails to their bosses about pulling over sick people.

Huh?
In its own words, “ChatGPT is a state-of-the-art language model developed by OpenAI.” In real English, this is an artificial intelligence-based program designed to “understand” request-based prompts and respond by mimicking conversation. human style.
Similar to Amazon Alexa and Google Home digital assistants, it can answer random questions on a variety of topics. But it goes a little further.
For example, you can conduct conversations, translate from one language to another, and create content. or Summarize the context of emails, messages, and essays. Sentiment can also be inferred from text analysis. Pretty smart, right?
(At least smart enough to get a $10 billion investment from Microsoft.)
Well, what are you doing in DS?
That’s a great question. We wondered the same thing when this announcement was first made. But then DS invited me to come and try it out and see for myself.
How did you get it?
Honestly? mixture. DS hopes to use ChatGPT integration to extend the capabilities of its Iris voice control suite, but says it is quite limited. So far, Iris has written scripts to call people, set up radio stations, and adjust the climate.

ChatGPT’s analytical engine can provide answers to a variety of things while driving, perhaps resembling a digital assistant, as it can adjust GPS, questions and explore its knowledge range. So if you’re wondering, “What is that strange building in front of me?” just ask the car and it will (probably) give you the answer.
perhaps?
Well, as we say, our experience was mixed. When I ask her to tell me a story about a girl named Sarah who lived in a castle and befriended a dragon, she quickly tells me the story. And for parents with young children, I can totally understand how valuable that is.
But some of the simpler ones are hit and miss. Indeed, when he didn’t know the answer, he was polite and apologetic.
During the process of writing an email or sending a text message, it started out fine, but then stopped while I was typing the body of the text I wanted to send.
Sounds a little corny.
To be fair to DS, we were only in the car for an hour, but the beauty of this type of machine learning service is… learn. The longer you use the car’s features, the more accurate they become. Familiarize yourself with your phrasing and accent, and keep improving your knowledge with tons of data stored in the cloud.that teeth Remember, pilot.

Bank of Data? I felt like I saw that movie recently.
it is dave banks. Meanwhile, ChatGPT’s cloud-based database stores vast amounts of audio files, allowing the program to listen to user prompts as audio patterns, “snap” and play back questions, and generate pre-learned appropriate answers. Send.
While this used to be crude and slow, AI-powered analytics has made this process much faster than before by working in real-time. As each user types, it learns from that user, stores that knowledge, and disseminates it to other users with the same prompts. That’s the fun of artificial intelligence.
DS also said it encourages users to notify the system when errors occur so the system can learn faster.
So many questions. Let’s talk about the drawbacks…
First, you always need a data connection.
Additionally, this particular ChatGPT integration only stores knowledge up to September 2021. I know the answer to the more recent one, but ChatGPT can only validate up to that date…for now. DS says if you ask for last weekend’s soccer results, you might not get it.
Well, I understand. Are there any other restrictions?
absolutely. They didn’t seem to want to switch through the system menus in the car and responded several times that they were confused by the questions.
As with opinions, there are official lines. ChatGPT says: “I cannot express my thoughts or feelings about integration with DS Automobiles Iris voice control suite, as I have no personal opinions or feelings. However, I cannot express my thoughts or feelings about the integration with DS Automobiles Iris voice control suite. However, I cannot express my thoughts and feelings about the potential benefits and considerations of such integration. , we can provide some insight.” Reiterate the benefits of the service.
Is it worth the price?
Actually, it’s free at first. And any new car is expected to have him available for three years as part of the Connect Pack Plus suite. True, there is a subscription fee after the initial period. However, this is not limited to new cars.
All customers of DS4 from 2021, DS7 sold after the end of 2022, and DS3 and DS9 will receive a remote update with the opportunity to participate in pilots in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Masu.
All of these customers will be emailed and asked to confirm the link. If you’re one of the chosen few, you need to start talking about it, ask what it can do for you (if you’re not sure) and go from there.
Are there any other things I should be aware of?
DS said success is measured by the amount of feedback and interaction. I will bring you the results for February.
