Tesla New Voice Assistant

Tesla is preparing for a breakthrough update that might transform the driving experience for its customers. In the most recent software update, Tesla enthusiasts discovered exciting hints about a future feature: a voice assistant built in-house by Tesla. This revelation has sparked enthusiasm among the community, as Elon Musk has already hinted at such a development.

Hints from Elon Musk’s Past Statements

Elon Musk’s desire to include a voice assistant in Tesla automobiles is not new. Musk mentioned the prospect of using his AI business, xAI, to provide a sophisticated chatbot experience in Tesla automobiles. While details are scarce, the code snippets suggest that Tesla’s voice assistant will be activated by a wake word, akin to “Hey Siri” or “Hey Google.” It means that the car will always listen and be ready to respond to commands.

The Role of Amazon Music and Enhancing the Tesla Driving Experience

Tesla is not only providing a novel convenience by integrating a native voice assistant but fundamentally changing how drivers interact with their vehicles. Voice commands enable actions that formerly required manual input to be completed hands-free, resulting in a more natural and safe driving experience.

Furthermore, Amazon Music playback support enhances the driving experience. With access to a wide selection of music, podcasts, and audiobooks, Tesla drivers can personalize their journeys like never before, converting ordinary commutes into entertaining experiences.

The new feature was noticed by Tesla hacker greentheonly in a recent X post, revealing the number of changes coming to vehicles throughout the company’s portfolio.
