OpenAI Introduces Advanced Voice Mode for ChatGPT: A Game Changer in AI Interactions
OpenAI Releases Advanced Voice Mode in ChatGPT
OpenAI has officially rolled out the Advanced Voice Mode feature to all paid users of ChatGPT, enhancing the interaction quality significantly. This feature allows the artificial intelligence model to express emotions and modulate voice, enabling a human-like chat experience that reacts to user dialogues.
Feature Overview
The new voice mode was first unveiled at the OpenAI Spring Updates event in May and is available in the ChatGPT app for Android and iOS. However, it’s important to note that this feature will not be accessible on the web. Users can activate it by tapping the waveform icon next to the text field, which unlocks five new voices—Vale, Spruce, Arbor, Maple, and Sol—each presenting unique tonality and accents.
Custom Instructions and Regional Limitations
- The Advanced Voice Mode includes a custom instruction feature allowing users to input personal information for contextual responses.
- OpenAI has confirmed that the voice mode will not be available in the EU, UK, Switzerland, Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein due to privacy regulations.
Though OpenAI was the first to announce this feature, Google has since introduced a similar capability called Gemini Live, raising questions about the competitive landscape in AI technology.
