The concept of self driving cars has been around for a long time, but in spite of the fact that this is the case these types of autonomous vehicles have faced a few hurdles when it comes to being implemented in real world settings. The rise of ChatGPT has made a lot of people wonder how AI assistants could factor into the equation, with many stating that they could make these cars safer than might have been the case otherwise.
The trend of integrating various functions into the central display is already ongoing. With all of that having been said and now out of the way, it is important to note that AI assistants could be added to the mix as well. There’s already quite a bit of AI that can be helpful in that regard, with Siri and Google Assistant already responding to natural language in quite an intuitive way.
However, the costs of incorporating AI into self driving cars could be prohibitive because of the fact that this is the sort of thing that could potentially end up making the cars unaffordable and expensive. Regardless, customers are demanding some improvements, and companies might have no choice but to meet them halfway with all things having been considered and taken into account.
There are many other features that customers want as well, such as tactile feedback. Also, it should be mentioned that many customers don’t like the touchscreen control panel. They still prefer the feeling of old school knobs as well as buttons. They aren’t just old fashioned, though. Such fixtures can be more visible since they are not displayed on screens and won’t become obscured by direct light falling on them.
All in all, it seems like companies need to start mixing a bit of the old with a bit of the new. There is no need to fix something that isn’t already broken. Customers might want AI, but that does not necessarily mean that they will also want their cars to start looking like spaceships that they won’t know how to operate with any degree of ease.
