Universal UI

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".

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.

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.

• Race the timer using only chat
• Try to parallel park
• Ask it to drift around a corner like in the movies
