Feature Suggestion: “K.I.T.T. Mode” for ChatGPT (Retro Sci-Fi Interface)

Hi OpenAI team,

As someone who grew up with Knight Rider, I’d love to suggest a fun but powerful feature: a “K.I.T.T. Mode” for ChatGPT.

:brain: What is it?

A retro-inspired interface that mimics the feel of the Knight Rider computer “K.I.T.T.” – complete with:

  • An animated red scanner-style equalizer (voice visualizer)
  • A sleek, dark UI reminiscent of the 80s dashboard
  • An optional voice mode with a calm, articulate K.I.T.T.-like tone
  • Optional quotes like: “System online. How can I assist you today?”

:rocket: Why this matters:

  • It turns ChatGPT into a more personal, nostalgic, and iconic assistant
  • Adds emotional connection for 80s/90s tech enthusiasts
  • Encourages interaction beyond the usual productivity use
  • Makes ChatGPT feel like science fiction coming to life – which, frankly, it is.

:bullseye: Bonus potential:

This could be an easter egg, a premium custom mode, or even a voice skill for future wearable devices.

Just imagine:

“K.I.T.T., run the backup script and find my last Markdown file.”

“Right away, Michael… I mean, user.”
