Viable use cases.

A

AI service assistant for technicians

A technician describes a fault or takes a photo of an error code. vi searches documentation, wiring diagrams, service history and comparable faults and suggests a systematic troubleshooting path.

Benefit: Shorter diagnosis times, fewer questions to experts, higher first-time fix rate.
