LAS VEGAS - German automotive giant Mercedes-Benz introduced a new generation virtual assistant named "Dialogue Partner" at this week's CES Electronics Fair. Based on artificial intelligence, this system aims to enrich the driving experience and take in-car interaction to a new level.
"Dialogue Partner" is equipped with advanced artificial intelligence technology capable of engaging in real-time dialogue with users and providing context-based suggestions. This cutting-edge product from Mercedes-Benz personalizes the in-car experience by responding quickly and intelligently to the needs of drivers and passengers.
Mercedes-Benz CTO Markus Schaefer stated, "Your car is now a conversation partner. You can ask questions, have a chat, and be productive." Schaefer noted that "Dialogue Partner" can understand emotions from users' tone of voice and respond accordingly, and it utilizes deep AI analysis capabilities to ask more explanatory questions.
The virtual assistant, which will be featured in various Mercedes-Benz models including the new concept CLA class, aims to complement the less complex hardware structure of electric vehicles with software innovations. The assistant also verifies the validity of its suggestions through cloud data and customer feedback, providing reliable and current information to users.
While other automobile manufacturers like Volkswagen are also introducing similar AI-based voice assistant technologies, Mercedes-Benz's innovation stands out for its potential to offer a richer and more personalized in-car experience for drivers and passengers.
The impact of this new technology on the future of the automotive world continues to be a topic of interest.
