AI Conversations with real time actionable data

[bassem]

Hey fellow owners;

I’d appreciate your opinions on a sample conversation I created between a Lucid Air and its driver. It explores whether there’s value in aggregating all the data our vehicles already have—range, charging, driving style—into something conversational and more personal.

I posted the short demo here on LinkedIn: AI Conversation with your Lucid by Bassem




Do you see this as something useful, or more of a distraction?

Not for me, thanks. I prefer to tell my computers what to do, not vice versa.

I didn't listen to the whole demo, but I found it to be an adversarial conversation.

Maybe it's just me...I don't use AI chat bots at all.

Lucid already has an LLM integrated into the vehicle so I'm sure at some point if people want to have a conversation with it they can. Only thing I've ever used voice assistants in the car for is weather, traffic and navigation. Not going to have a pointless conversation with AI.

Same sentiment here, I don't see the point.

I think this is brilliant! Not just for this “conversation”, but for what it represents going forward. A little scary but we need to stay on top of it.
Other questions might be - “How much range will it cost me to have some fun?” Or “what is the optimum charge protocol for charging my three EVs given the charge I will o have when I get home?” Or things I cant even think of yet!

Glad that landed with you! Yes—the “what’s the cost of having fun?” type of question is exactly where this could get interesting. Imagine the car saying: “Floor it now, and you’ll still make it to your next stop with 12% left.” It’s that actionable, contextual guidance that excites me.

Totally fair points. I don’t think of this as replacing direct control—we’ll always want to tell the car what to do. My angle is more: if the car already knows my driving style, battery health, and charging patterns, is there value in surfacing that in a conversational way? Maybe it’s less “AI talking back” and more “AI translating data into plain language.”
