Tesla announces the integration of a new AI-driven in-car voice assistant in China, developed using ByteDance's Doubao and Deepseek technologies via the Volcano Engine cloud service. This assistant enhances user experience by enabling control over navigation, entertainment, and cabin temperature through voice commands, as noted in Tesla's updated terms of service. This strategic move aligns Tesla with local competitors who have already adopted similar innovations, reflecting a growing trend of foreign automakers partnering with Chinese AI firms.
