Hey siri - ask ChatGPT. Super cool feature when you are driving and if you want to talk to ChatGPT about anything. Highly recommend

How does that compare to using ChatGPT voice mode directly?

  Does ChatGPT work with car play? How do you access voice mode without touching the device (as in while driving?)

Why would anybody want to “talk to ChatGPT” while _driving_? Tech addicts, fr

  “We’re passing the village of <some village> what can you tell me about it?” Seems like an amazing tool for car trips.

    unfortunately villages and people are on the very far end of the hallucination spectrum

    I’m more concerned about distracted drivers dealing with shitty connection and not paying attention to the road. Also, not sure where you are located but in the USA the cellular providers are god damn awful out in the sticks and certain segments of the highway. I wouldn’t be surprised if the queries hang.

  Do you sit there like a robot and do nothing more than drive? No music, no radio, no podcasts, no phone calls; nothing? For those of us who enjoy some form of entertainment while driving, sometimes those things mentioned don't hit right or you getting bored of them or you run out of episodes, especially on long drives. Talking with ChatGPT's just another form of (audio) entertainment. I can ask it about whatever and have it interactively teach me about eg double entry accounting. I can interrupt with the dumbest questions and never feel judged. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Kind of off topic, but I don't think it necessarily makes one a robot. Some people enjoy quiet moments and spend time organizing their thoughts, imagining things, thinking through problems, or just enjoying a relatively calm and thoughtless period. I suppose you can think of it as just a different form of entertainment driven internally rather than externally. I really appreciate any moment I can get where I'm not inundated with stimuli.

    Nope. I’m more concerned about distracted drivers. “Siri hands free” is far from a hands free experience. Doesn’t matter if it’s ChatGPT powering the queries.
    - fragmede 2y ago
      then why not worry more about Reddit and TikTok, both of which I've seen drivers use?

  why would you talk to other passengers, just sit there and stare out of the window child

    Tell me you have never used “Siri hands free” without saying it directly… Using Siri and an iPhone for “hands free” driving, whether it’s ChatGPT or w/e, it’s not very user friendly. Ask it for basic shit such as directions to some restaurant, and it takes seconds to load and sometimes even asks you to unlock your phone. Even worse experience with cellular connection. No more hands free experience. Now it’s a very real distraction from what you _should_ be doing - driving the fucking vehicle and don’t kill anybody or maim a pedestrian. Sick and tired of you distracted shit heads using your phone instead of paying attention to the god damn road. Don’t even get me started on Cruise/Waymo or the god damn drive share shitheads.

the only annoying thing about it is that it consistently takes six seconds to start listening
