New AI assistant detects risky driving, offers emotional feedback

Researchers have developed a vision-language pipeline called the Keep Yelling Assistant (KYA) designed to detect risky driving behaviors and provide emotionally responsive feedback to drivers. The system uses YOLOv8 variants for real-time detection of maneuvers like sudden cut-ins, extracting key driving metrics. These metrics are then processed by large language models such as ChatGPT 4o, Claude 3, and Gemini 2.5, which generate verbal responses tailored to user-defined emotional tones. A user study with 108 participants indicated that while preferences varied, the combination of YOLOv8s and ChatGPT-4o received the highest rating for emotional alignment. AI

IMPACT This system could enhance driver safety and comfort by providing real-time, emotionally intelligent feedback on driving behavior.
