I guess our car is not our private space anymore, and we are not given a choice when buying a car from Volkswagen.

I don't know if this is hilarious or pathetically sad. AI has become the current "must have" craze in the tech world and it's baffling watching every company try and find a way to shoehorn some form of it into their products and then try and justify its existence.

Cerence Chat Pro from technology partner Cerence Inc. is the foundation of the new function, which offers a uniquely intelligent, *automotive-grade *ChatGPT integration.

Why the hell would I want this?

automotive-grade ChatGPT

How much you want to bet this means its answer to everything car related is “take it to the dealership for service”?

AI has become the current “must have” craze

Specifically LLM chatbots. AI was already in vogue, with companies calling simple hand-made decision trees about as complex as a phone answering menu AI.

Why the hell would I want this?

You don't, investors do. This is SEO for investors. They are looking to invest into LLMs, and as such, news with a company name and AI or LLM in the title will tick off trading bots to buy the stock of the company in question. The "economy" is mostly bots at this stage.
