01How it works
02Story
I kept hearing that chat is the future of every interface, so I tested it on something that needs quick, precise control: driving.
It's frustrating on purpose. Sometimes a steering wheel is just better than typing "turn left 30 degrees".
03Lessons
The model gets six buttons and nothing else, and it presses one before it says a word.
A "universal" interface often means a uniformly mediocre one. Chat can control anything, but it's rarely the best way to control any one thing.
04Tech
Tool calling: the model can call six car functions, and the car's state rides along with every message. Providers differ a lot here; some are reliable, others fumble the format.
05Try this
- Race the timer using only chat
- Try to parallel park
- Ask it to drift around a corner like in the movies
