Now with tech, it can tickle our feelings in new ways.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The most techy feature of all is the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant, a kind of AI human that lives in the dashboard to help with all tasks related to driving. It can control the AC, music, heating, ambient lighting, and driving modes, automatically or with driver input.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, if you tell it your feet are cold, BMW says the intelligent assistant will respond by turning the heat up in the footwell.<\/p>\n<p>According to BMW, drivers will also be able to give the assistant a name of their choosing. Yes, you can call it Kitt, or Hal, if that\u2019s <em>your thing<\/em>. <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">App<\/a>arently, it\u2019s going to have a face too. Seriously, here\u2019s what Beamer says:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The new visualization approach for the assistant features spheres of light in differing sizes and brightness levels, giving it more space and new ways of expressing itself. This visual image also gives it a \u201cface\u201d with a clearly visible point of focus and identifiable states of activity via gestures.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The German carmaker says the new assistant is so intelligent thanks to the underlying data and information it\u2019s been built on. This allows it to respond to, and communicate with the drivers, based on context.<\/p>\n<p>Presumably, it\u2019ll scream at you if you\u2019re about to crash into a tree. Or it will pleasantly oblige when you ask it to cue up Dire Straits as you hit the highway, complimenting you on your great taste in music as you go.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1342823 lazy\" alt=\"car, bmw, idrive \" width=\"2249\" height=\"1500\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2249px) 100vw, 2249px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/P90415784-lowRes.jpg\" data-lazy=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/P90415784-lowRes.jpg 2249w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/P90415784-lowRes-280x187.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/P90415784-lowRes-405x270.jpg 405w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/P90415784-lowRes-202x135.jpg 202w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/P90415784-lowRes-796x531.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/P90415784-lowRes-1592x1062.jpg 1592w\"\/><figcaption>Credit: BMW<\/figcaption><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/shift\/2021\/03\/16\/bmw-idrive-emotional-infotainment-future\/#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthenextweb.com%2Fshift%2F2021%2F03%2F16%2Fbmw-idrive-emotional-infotainment-future%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: BMW\u2019s new iDrive 8 will respond to all kinds of commands.

Thank you, BMW.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It sure sounds like BMW\u2019s next generation iDrive is throwing the gauntlet of who has the best infotainment system down to its competitors.<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest challenges is likely not to come from an automotive brand, but from search giant Google.<\/p>\n<p>Google\u2019s Android Automotive is already available in the Polestar 2 \u2014 I can say first hand that it\u2019s great, it just simply works. The transition from phone to car and back again is neat and superior to every other system I\u2019ve used.<\/p>\n<p>However, Android Automotive isn\u2019t tied to any single carmaker. Google and Ford have reportedly teamed up to bring the platform to millions of cars, and will start integrating it in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s going to be far more accessible than BMW\u2019s more premium offering.<\/p>\n<p>While the Android experience will no doubt appeal to many, especially those using Android phones. I expect BMW\u2019s system to feel decidedly more polished, and well, just special.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll probably fall in love with it even more when I can give it its own name, and it can whisper sweet nothings into my ear on our long late night drives.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><i><span>Do EVs excite your electrons?
