JIDU AI ROBO - combine interactive robot emotion with artificial intelligence within the driving experience

From this article on electrek:

JIDU’s market strategy is a focus on popularizing autonomous driving and human-machine interaction technologies, beginning with its flagship EV which will be based on a concept called the ROBO-01.

Since first teasing the ROBO-01, JIDU quickly began touting it as the nameplate for fully-autonomous EVs that combine interactive robot emotion with artificial intelligence within the driving experience. We got our first full glimpse of ROBO-01 during JIDU’s ROBOCAR Day in June, showcasing a retractable yoke steering wheel powered by JIDU’s steer-by-wire technology that can fold up during autonomous driving mode.

So wait... They are going to combine "interactive robot emotion" with their FSD AI? Um... What does AI road rage look like? If the conditions are rainy for too long, does the car get depressed and slow down? Do I have to listen to it complain about the weather? Hopefully it isn't an "early bird". Last thing I need when starting on an early day-trip is to be talked to by an overly chipper positivity nut. I'd rather just have the AI shut up and drive. I'll be in the back asleep. Let me know when we get there.

We joked about this concept being like KITT from Knight Rider months ago, but it’s actually pretty close.

Dang. Apparently, conversational AI is getting scary good according to the lab coat crew at various organizations.

3rd parties will add porn star seductive voices programmed to the driver’s S or M personas. When passengers are noticed, voice becomes professional.

3rd parties will add porn star seductive voices programmed to the driver’s S or M personas. When passengers are noticed, voice becomes professional.

Maybe the new up and coming economic model is to turn the AI into a syrupy voice that will recruit the human occupant into a money pig. Suddenly the cost of the EV in question is only just the start of the costs involved.
