Talking with AIs about views from a vehicle

Casual-dialog system based on scenery and nearby information

Talking with AIs about views from a vehicle
Abstract

This is a study of a partner dialogue system for mobile vehicles that uses the ever-changing, real-time view from the car as a topic of conversation. This system uses a deep-learning based dialogue model using the largest scale of Japanese dialogue data developed by NTT to realize natural dialogue. This system integrates scenery images from vehicle and spots around the car's location to talk about scenery around the vehicle. By sequentially incorporating information about the area around the vehicle's location, we are realizing a new experience of driving while enjoying the pleasure of sharing the "now" with a knowledgeable dialogue system.
