Slightly off topic.... Do our GS have air conditioning seats or just ventilated seats? If it's actually cooled seats, how does that work?

As far as I can tell, they're just ventilated as per the literature and it feels just ventilated to me. If you sit in an RX with air conditioned seats, the chill is real.

The front seats are ventilated, not air conditioned. The seat mounted fans draw cabin air from underneath the seats and pushes the pressurized air through the pores of the seat material. When getting into a hot car it's best to have the A/C system cool the cabin interior down for awhile before turning On the seat ventilation.
