#168 – NIO’s Nomi vs. Alexa: Smarter Than Your Co-Driver – with Dominique Massonié

Made in China

It's been a while since we recorded this episode, but now the time has finally come: we're taking you on a journey between Berlin, Shanghai and the digital soul of Nio.

Dominique Massonié is Head of Software Internationalisation at NOMI-EU and has helped develop perhaps the most charming voice in the cockpit. We talk to him about voice assistants, the question of how cars can become more human and what happens when an AI suddenly shows emotion.

We talk about software, about cultural bridges between France, Germany and China, about hotpot as a team strategy and about why the streets in Berlin are different to those in Shanghai and why this is even a problem for microphones.

Anyone who has always wanted to know why a car suddenly asks whether it should really open the passenger window all the way or what Chinese speed means in everyday life will love this episode.
