Abstract—This letter reports on a TIV DHW (decentralized
and hybrid workshop) that explores the prospective influence
of ChatGPT on research and development in intelligent vehi-
cles. To assess the update capabilities of ChatGPT, we conducted
tests involving both basic and technically relevant questions. Our

preliminary testing revealed that ChatGPT’s information can be
updated and corrected at one time, but it may take some time
for the changes t o be reflected in ChatGPT’s responses, so it may
not always possess the latest knowledge regarding specific topics.
We further discuss the prospective influence of ChatGPT on the
field of intelligent vehicles, particularly possible applications of
ChatGPT in areas like autonomous driving, human-vehicle interac-
tion, and intelligent transportation systems, highlighting challenges
and opportunities associated with these applications. Additionally,
we address technical questions, such as the feasibility of training
intelligent vehicles using the same methods as ChatGPT and the
reflection of the intelligence of intelligent vehicles in the context of
human-machine shared control. I n conclusion, this letter presents a
preliminary exploration of the potential of ChatGPT for intelligent
vehicle research, from an IEEE TIV perspective, acknowledging
the limitations and uncertainties of this emerging technology.
Index Terms—Neural language programming, intelligent
vehicles, human-vehicle interaction, intelligent transportation

I. INTRODUCTION
R
ECENT advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have led to
significant progress. One particular development is natural
language processing, which has enabled the creation of chatbots
that can simulate human-like conversations. One such language
model is ChatGPT [1], which gains widespread attention
because of its powerful ability to converse with humans.
Given the potential relevance of ChatGPT to intelligent vehicle
research [2], a TIV DHW was held to explore the prospective
influence of ChatGPT on this field [3]. The DHW was attended
by Associate Editors and the Editor-in-Chief of IEEE TIV
online as shown in Fig. 1 as well as some Associate Editors
offline, who reported their perspectives on the topic and engaged
in discussions and debates [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11],
[12], [13], [14], [15], [16].
The main objectives of the TIV DHW were:
r
Test the update capabilities of ChatGPT through basic
questions about intelligent vehicles, the IEEE TIV, and the
Editor-in-Chief of IEEE TIV.
r
Discuss possible applications of ChatGPT in areas such
as autonomous driving, human-vehicle interaction, and
intelligent transportation systems, and highlight some of
