Volkswagen says it’s putting ChatGPT in its cars for “enriching conversations”::Volkswagen is putting ChatGPT into its cars starting in the second quarter of 2024. The feature is being considered for the US, but plans have yet to be finalized.
no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
I found this on the web for, “no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no”
I just want to fucking drive. I don’t need a conversation. Can we stop listening to dumbasses fresh out of their MBA program?
It really feels like 2000 bubble. Everyone seems to be so invested in it, but more and more looks like this will burst and take many companies with it.
Oh god please, p PLEASE just burst the AI hype bubble now.
It’s almost as if they want you to be as distracted as possible while driving

So, they’re fresh off of rolling back their attempt to make everything a touch interface, which everyone hated… and they’re electing to go down yet another poorly-considered human interface rabbit hole?
That’s a bold move, cotton.
I’ll stick with my “stupid” 2003 Jetta 1.8T, thanks.
Man i wish I could’ve kept my 2003 mk4 GTI with a stick but it’s just falling apart. I’ll miss it.
Yeah, it’s a rattly little bastard, but it’s got the 5-speed and I love it to bits lol
Why do we need “enriching conversations” built in a car at all? Aren’t you supposed to be focusing on the road?
VW promises it won’t force you to create a new account or install any apps.
Not yet, anyway.
They saw us get angry at a heating subscription and decided we are tiktok brained idiots who lack the skill to be social with humans and found another potential subscription service justification that causes less anger?
Conversation keeps me alert if I’ve been driving a long time. I don’t know if artificial conversation would be as effective, but at least it’s an option.
Perhaps one of the stupidest fucking ideas ever. “Let’s add more and more and more distractions for drivers. A touch screen so they have to stop looking at the road! An AI to distract them with inane rambling, because we think that’s an enriching conversation since we are also robots. Add that to the ads on radio fucking with you by being different volumes and having car beeping noises and shit in them and WE WILL FINALLY ERADICATE THE DRIVERS”
You WILL have AI in every device you own and you WILL enjoy it
The AI will be watching you to make sure you’re enjoying it.
wrong, you won’t own your devices
Drink your verification can verified by AI.
ChatGPT is a cancer.
I think of it more as the inbred child of down syndrome siblings that eats lead paint.
You guys dare to explain why you think of it like that? It’s invaluable tool at work - writes bash one-liners and code that usually works from the first try.
You might know the saying that if your code complies on the first try you did something wrong.
Skynet, eventually.
Who doesn’t want spyware in their car?
I’ve got.some bad news for you…
DotCom bubble 2.0
Volkswagen, voice command, emergency brake
“As a language model I…”
This is so incredibly stupid. If I want to use ChatGPT, I’ll use ChatGPT. Not, “If I want to communicate while driving, I’ll use ChatGPT.”

Ok, VW what can you tell me about Dieselgate
I’m very interested in machine learning, or AI as it’s usually referred to in hyped-up content, and have also done research in the topic of generative AI. It hurts me so much that such interesting and useful technology has become another empty hype word. Nobody is waiting for this kind of gimmicky shit. It does nothing but hurt the public’s view of this technology, similar to all the copyright issues and privacy concerns. Why must companies take things that can ultimately do something good in some cases and apply it to absolutely everything with no regards for the impact on their customers.
Most companies don’t need “AI” and would be much better of spending those resources on actually improving their products. Useful places for generative AI would be something like Photoshop incorporating it, or a video game with better AI or more natural NPC conversations. Not some gimmicky AI assistant in a car, or some annoying AI chat window bothering you when visiting a news site. Soon people will be completely done with all this gimmicky “AI” bullshit and the useful applications will constantly have to deal with the stigma created by these greedy mindless corporations forcing “AI” on everyone in places where it adds nothing.
