Rivian says its cars will run third‑party AI agents in future

Why it matters for readers: It explains that your car’s voice system may one day run assistants from other companies, not just Rivian’s own software.
- Rivian has rolled out an in‑car AI assistant that responds to voice commands today.1
- CEO RJ Scaringe said Rivian’s cars will be able to run third‑party AI agents from companies like Anthropic in the future.1
- Scaringe did not provide a timeline and the company declined to give further details, directing press to its December 'AI & Autonomy Day' event.1
- Rivian built its own in‑car software stack and an in‑house agentic framework that routes spoken requests to the right part of the vehicle’s software.1
- The framework can choose between local models running on the vehicle and other models to decide which to use for a request.1
