ChatGPT in cars
According to the official announcement by the company, Mercedes’ voice assistant, MBUX, will be reconfigured using the power of ChatGPT. Mercedes, which combines the already successful structure of MBUX with the productivity of artificial intelligence, will take the user experience to the next level. The company will begin testing the beta version of the project as of June 16.
With MBUX powered by artificial intelligence, you will be able to receive support on almost any topic you can think of. You can get basic recommendations on what clothing style to choose for an event you will attend during the day, as well as rely on artificial intelligence for complex calculations in your professional projects. In order to benefit from all these privileges that users can access by participating in the beta program, they need to say, “Hey Mercedes, I want to join the beta program.” However, it should be noted that currently only individuals residing within the United States can participate in the program.

During the three-month Beta program planned by Mercedes, all users in the United States will be able to experience the ChatGPT-supported system. At the end of the three months, the AI-supported MBUX will be disabled and enter a detailed reporting process, after which it will be made accessible to all users following technical improvements.
