Order my Starbucks by voice while the car drives itself

Vancouver Tesla owner Devin Olsen used AI in his car to order Starbucks while Full Self-Driving drove, confirming the drink and total by voice before the AI placed the order for pickup on arrival. He described it as the first time the car felt like it could run an errand with him.

How it works

  1. Olsen asks the AI by voice to order Starbucks
  2. The AI confirms the drink and total aloud
  3. Olsen approves
  4. The AI places the order
  5. Coffee ready for pickup on arrival

Why it’s worth knowing

A spoken sentence in a self-driving car turned into a paid coffee order waiting at the store.
