Artificial intelligence, which continues to develop day by day, is involved in every aspect of our lives. Especially the successes on the autonomous driving side of vehicles have been effective in the automotive industry. Mercedes also added a new feature for the MBUX Multimedia System with its announcements. Thanks to the published update, Mercedes MBUX now has advanced artificial intelligence features and humanoid chat is available. Here are the details.

Mercedes MBUX voice assistant works with OpenAI service

As of today, the update released by Mercedes can be installed on vehicles completely free of charge. The feature, which supports two languages, English and German, has been released for more than three million vehicles. Thanks to the update, when a question is asked to Mercedes, the vehicle, which conducts research on Microsoft Bing, can answer in a natural and humanised way.

After his research on Bing, artificial intelligence, which created his answer using ChatGPT through the Microsoft Azure OpenAI service, was able to answer almost every question on geography, science, health, and history.

Artificial intelligence, which can be activated by saying ‘Hey, Mercedes.’ or by pressing the assigned button on the steering wheel, can also answer different questions related to the subject as a continuation. In addition, these conversations can be stored for up to one hour. While more language support is expected in the coming days, the statement made by Mercedes-Benz is as follows:

‘By adding an AI-powered information feature to our MBUX Voice Assistant, we are making it even easier for customers to connect with their vehicles in a fun and rewarding way. Our unique AI software seamlessly interacts with ChatGPT and Bing through the Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service, delivering information like never before. This is further evidence of our journey towards a hyper-personalised in-car user experience.’
