A General Motors executive reportedly said the company is exploring the use of ChatGPT as part of a broader partnership with Microsoft Corp.

  "ChatGPT will be used everywhere," said GM vice president Scott Miller.

  Miller said the chatbot could be used to get information on how to use vehicle features in the owner's manual, or programming features like garage door codes, or to consolidate scheduling from a calendar.

  A GM spokesman said: "This shift to chatbots in cars is not just about the evolution of voice commands, but means customers can expect their future cars to be more capable and innovative with emerging technologies as a whole."

  General Motors is developing a virtual personal assistant that uses ChatGPT's artificial intelligence model, the report said.

 

  Earlier this year, Microsoft announced a multibillion-dollar investment in ChatGPT owner OpenAI, an American artificial intelligence research firm, with the aim of incorporating chatbot technology into all of its products.

  Like other big tech companies, Microsoft has been ramping up its efforts to put more new technologies into cars, including the car's information system, autonomous driving, an operating system that controls battery performance and various other functions of the car.

  General Motors will team up with Microsoft to accelerate the commercialization of self-driving cars.
