Rolling Out Magazine and Lexus invited Mr. M and I for an evening of luxury and technology with an exclusive event showcasing the first-ever 2024 Lexus TX 350.
Also, Rolling Out featured their AI Music Lab. This new generative AI platform enables users to create royalty-free samples and tracks. Perfect for content creators.
I heard samples of the custom AI playlist, which was pretty cool, with a genre of different beats to suit all tastes. And with the music you create, you can play it in the Lexus.
During the event, Mr. M shared his thoughts about Rolling Out's AI Music Lab. According to him, he believes that it may not become popular. I agree with him. While it may be useful for those who create video content, I don't think it will be widely adopted by everyday users.
My First Thoughts about the 2024 Lexus TX 350
Now, about my impressions of the 2024 Lexus TX 350. My first thought is that the exterior resembles the Toyota Grand Highlander. Now, that's not a bad thing, but it doesn't give that luxury look, more sporty, for the casual drivers.
The car's interior resembles the Grand Highlander, as well, but is enhanced with suede accents. The cabin is spacious, and the seats are comfortable. One of the best features is the power-folding third-row seats; I wish I had that in my car. And the infotainment display screen is 12.3, making it larger than other Lexus vehicles I've seen.
If you remember, I was shopping for a new vehicle a few months back, and a Lexus was in the front running. I was in the market for the Lexus RX but was shocked to see how small the 2023 Lexus RX has gotten.
The salesman told me that because the 2024 Lexus TX is coming soon, it will replace RX's original size, and RX will downsize.
That is one of the reasons why I no longer wanted the Lexus RX and instead opted for the 2023 Toyota Highlander.
If you're interested in purchasing the 2024 Lexus TX 350, the starting price is $55K, and the SUV showcased at the event is $70K.
It's so impressive how far along technology has gone, especially when it comes to AI.
Technology has simplified the world and increased connectivity. However, it has also led to job losses and content theft by AI. Despite this, technology has its pros and cons.
I look forward to seeing where technology will take us next.
