OpenAI, the developer behind ChatGPT, has launched a major ChatGPT update, and the best and most notable part is the integration of ChatGPT’s popular voice feature directly into the chat interface.
What’s new in the latest ChatGPT update?
In the new ChatGPT update, users can now speak, listen and view conversations while chatting with the AI chatbot, eliminating the need to switch between separate modes.
This update mixes spoken responses with real-time visuals such as images, charts, flashcards, and interactive widgets.
Since the AI responds audibly, it makes conversations more contextual and easier to follow as the text appears alongside these images.
ChatGPT users can scroll through the entire transcript, allowing them to review previous messages without interrupting the spoken conversation.
The updated version also offers flexible input options, allowing users to type responses when speaking is not possible while still receiving an audio response.
ChatGPT’s chat-integrated voice feature is designed for practical tasks. For example, users can:
- Follow hands-free as you cook, with measurements both heard and seen.
- Practice a new language with words spelled as they are spoken.
- Discuss complex topics, such as diagrams or code, with visual aids provided along with spoken responses.
Availability and settings
This latest ChatGPT update is rolling out globally on the ChatGPT mobile app and website.
The company has included a toggle in the settings to return to the classic mode for those who prefer the original voice-only experience.
The GPT manufacturer stated that it will continue to fine-tune the integrated voice experience to ensure more immersive and versatile AI interactions for everyday users.
