in the 1982 television series knight rider, the hero can have a full conversation with his future car. This type of language interface, once science fiction, will soon be one step closer to reality, as General Motors is working to put his ChatGPT-style AI assistant in its cars, according to Semafor and Reuters. There is a possibility.
GM does not add knight riderThanks to a collaboration with Microsoft, the car may ultimately speak to you in an intelligent way, whether it’s equipped with a style turbojet engine or crime-fighting weaponry.
Microsoft has invested heavily in OpenAI, the company that created ChatGPT. Now they are exploring ways to apply chatbot technology to different areas.
“ChatGPT will be embedded in everything,” Reuters quoted GM vice president Scott Miller in an interview last week. can be integrated into your calendar, and you can use a conversational voice interface to program your garage door code.
Michael first speaks to KITT in Episode 1 of Knight Rider in 1982.
A report from Semafor, which first reported the story, says drivers could ask future AI-enabled GM cars how to fix a flat tire, and the car could play an instructional video or provide step-by-step instructions. You may be able to Instructions on how to change.
A GM spokesperson told Reuters, “This change goes beyond single features like the evolution of voice commands, and makes future cars much more functional and fresh overall when it comes to new technology. It means that customers can expect to become
Large-scale language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT process text (and understand speech with Whisper integration) and rely heavily on large data sets trained on conversational context and information from the internet provide a response that However, it has also been known to produce convincing errors in reporting factual information. This is an obvious problem that GM and Microsoft must solve before bringing his LLM-based solution to market.
in the above knight rider, Michael Knight (played by David Hasselhoff) drives an AI-powered car (named KITT, a modified 1982 Pontiac Trans Am) that can speak and understand natural language in fluid dialogue. It also understands its surroundings and reacts dynamically. In the series’ first episode, Knight says, “Unbelievable, a car that speaks to me.”
In that series, KITT is also capable of self-driving, and feature car makers have struggled with using another form of AI unrelated to LLM. And ChatGPT, tuned for language (not driving), isn’t getting behind the wheel anytime soon. But Pontiac, which he was a division of General Motors in 1982, could miss out on a big opportunity unless GM licenses an automotive AI assistant he named KITT.
