Pateo Adds Nvidia and ByteDance AI Models to In-Car AI Box

At a glance

Chinese auto parts maker Pateo is strengthening in-car AI features by adding two language models to a vehicle AI box built on Nvidia chips. The key feature is that the AI can run right inside the car, even when there is no internet connection.

Key points

1. 1

   The AI box does not connect to the cloud. It recognizes voice and generates responses directly inside the car.

2. 2

   It looks at the driver's requests and the situation inside the car using voice, video, and sensors, and adjusts functions such as the air conditioner and windows.

3. 3

   When the air is bad, it suggests closing the windows and switching to recirculation mode. When the driver is tired, it advises them to rest.

4. 4

   It is designed to warn in advance about dangers such as parking violations, flooding, and fire.

Why it matters

AI inside a car that works quickly without internet could make driving more comfortable and safer.
