Bengaluru Auto Driver Uses ChatGPT Daily; OpenAI Responds

A Bengaluru auto driver's daily use of ChatGPT is going viral. He uses the AI for many tasks, like answering questions in Kannada and evaluating topics such as astrology. What's interesting is his balanced assessment of the AI. He praises its ability to analyze "very deep" information. However, he notes it struggles with specialized subjects like KP Astrology, where it gives contradictory or partial answers. He suggests the database might not be complete for these niche topics. The driver even says the AI remembers questions he asked months ago. He types in English and asks for responses in Kannada. He also appreciates the voice features, showing how the chatbot can respond orally and in writing in Kannada. This video gained so much traction that OpenAI itself responded in Kannada, saying they are "always happy" to help. This story highlights how AI tools are being used in unexpected ways, demonstrating their growing relevance in everyday life.
