Thats the best date offer Ive had in years... ill look up the discord.

 

Release 5.8.2 brings more events and actions for the GPT / LLM integration for the Assistants. Additionally, the "Practice Center" and the "Race Center" will now save a recorded session to the session database, from there it can be shared with your team members or your crew chief or coach for evaluation. And the release contains a new, fully rewritten runtime for local LLMs.

As an addition, I have a TL;DW recording from our latest coaching session in our Discord for you. It as an 1-hour trip into the rabbit hole of using GPT-based large language models to boost the intelligence and extend the capabilities of the Race Assistants.

Lots of new stuff this week:

1. Non-circuit tracks like Rally stages, hill climb tracks and even street roads can now be mapped correctly. After you gut a track map, you can use Track Automations to create pace notes, or automate car settings depending on track position.



2. Many new events and actions for the LLM integration are provided for Spotter. One of which enable you to automate actions like saving the replay after a pitstop or at the end of the race.

3. The local LLM runtime now supports non-Nvidia GPUs using the Vulkan driver.

Beside several important bug fixes, we have two major changes this week:

1. If you have configured an LLM to boost the intelligence of the Race Assistants, it si now possible to let the Assistants collaborate on a given task. Example: The Spotter recognized that your direct opponent ahead is pitting. The LLM can then trigger an action, which informs the Strategist by an event, so that he will check the strategy and probably call you to the pit as well. Addionally this release once again comes with several new predefined events and actions for the LLM integration.

2. You can now open almost any report in the "Practice Center" in a separate window. This makes it easier to compare laps and other important data. This feature has already been around in the "Race Center", but is now available for the "Practice Center" as well.

This time I renamed two applications. "Practice Center" has become "Solo Center" and "Race Center" has become "Team Center", which reflects much better, the purpose and scope of these applications. The "Solo Center" got a lot of love in the area of tyre handling and we have a new LLM event for the Spotter.
