On September 24th, Gelonghui reported that Google partnered with Volkswagen to launch an AI assistant for drivers in a smart phone application. This collaboration allows Volkswagen drivers to interact with the AI assistant within the app, asking questions such as "How to change a flat tire?" or using the phone camera to scan the vehicle dashboard for real-time information. The AI assistant utilizes Google's Gemini large language models and cloud computing resources. These models excel at understanding and generating responses in human language. During the development process, Volkswagen user manuals and vehicle maintenance tutorials on YouTube were integrated into the Gemini framework. Currently, this AI assistant is being offered for free to around 0.12 million owners of Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport models. There are plans to expand its usage to other vehicles from 2020 and onwards early next year.
