About this listen

Can your car really understand you? In this episode, we explore how Natural Language Processing (NLP) and AI-powered voice assistants are reshaping the driving experience. From IBM’s Shoebox to today’s smart systems in Kia and Mercedes, we trace the journey of voice tech in cars.

You’ll hear how these tools bring hands-free convenience, safety features like emergency calls, and even smart home integration—while also raising new challenges around data privacy, edge vs. cloud computing, and security.

The big takeaway: voice assistants are no longer a futuristic add-on. They’re here—making cars more intuitive, personalized, and connected than ever.
