Ford has launched an AI assistant to help owners better understand their cars.
The assistant is built into the Ford and Lincoln smartphone apps, but it will eventually be integrated into the automakers’ cars as well.
The chatbot can summarize information from the owner’s manual and can offer tailored answers to each specific vehicle.
Ford has entered the AI assistant game with a new chatbot designed to offer answers to specific questions from owners. The American automaker has started rolling out the feature to the Ford and Lincoln smartphone apps, with a total of eight million customers slated to get the new feature soon.
The company announced earlier this year that it would integrate artificial intelligence into its software products, and now it has done just that. Ford says that its new AI assistant can explain specific features like its BlueCruise hands-free highway driving assistant system, effectively acting as a little robot that reads the owner’s manual for you.
