The new AI assistant will better understand GM vehicles and drivers.<\/p>\n

GM says it will include extensive knowledge of the brand\u2019s vehicles.<\/p>\n

The technology will be able to anticipate the needs of drivers.<\/p>\n

General Motors is developing a new in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant that it claims will go beyond even Google\u2019s Gemini, the AI technology<\/a> it recently rolled into its cars. If the thought of an AI chatbot in your car already unsettles you, brace yourself, because GM wants to take things further.<\/p>\n

Speaking to CNBC<\/a>, GM director of product management for voice and AI\/machine learning Anna Santos said the automaker\u2019s new native AI assistant<\/a> will be \u201cdeeply integrated\u201d and combine \u201cconversational AI with GM vehicle knowledge and OnStar intelligence to create those capabilities that go beyond what a general purpose assistant can do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Santos added that the system will \u201cunderstand the vehicle, the drive and our customers\u2019 needs\u201d better than Gemini does. GM is reportedly working with an unnamed large language model provider on the technology, and it could fold in predictive maintenance along with live vehicle telemetry data, according to CNBC.<\/p>\n

GM\u2019s current infotainment system runs on the Google-provided Android Automotive, and Gemini AI is being added to millions of its 2022 model year and newer vehicles this year. The assistant can be used for changing things like the climate control settings and radio functions, in addition to offering all the same features as it does on a smartphone. Ultimately, however, there are limits to the system\u2019s abilities as it is not a GM<\/a> product and lacks knowledge about specific models from the brand, which its own AI assistant can be trained to understand.<\/p>\n

An AI That Really Knows Your Car<\/p>\n

Speaking about GM\u2019s in-house AI assistant<\/a> late last year, vice president of software and services engineering David Richardson said, \u201cit\u2019s going to anticipate your needs, offer timely help and make every journey more personable and more enjoyable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sadly, neither Santos nor Richardson have provided any timeline as to when the system could be ready. Even once it\u2019s fully developed, it\u2019ll have to be tested extensively across the entire GM product range before being introduced.<\/p>\n
