Tech & AI | June 26, 2024, 5:04 a.m.
OpenAI has announced a delay in the release of its highly anticipated "Voice Mode" feature for ChatGPT, citing the need for more time to ensure the technology meets their standards for launch. The advanced voice assistants, showcased last month, aim to provide users with a more humanlike and seamless experience. Improvements are being made to enhance content detection and user experience, with plans to eventually scale the feature to millions of customers.
While voices have been part of ChatGPT since 2023, the upgraded version presented last month generated excitement and even comparisons to the AI voice assistant in the movie "Her." However, delays in the rollout of new voices, as well as a feature utilizing phone cameras for added functionality, have occurred in order to prioritize safety and reliability. Stay tuned for updates on when these exciting advancements will be available to users.
