Summary
AI assistants like ChatGPT have been advancing at a steady rate, offering more capabilities, better accuracy and faster responses with each new model. The Advanced Voice Mode came after and featured a single multimodal model that improved things considerably. You will now occasionally hear ChatGPT vocalizing short acknowledgements like "mhmm" or "yeah" while you're speaking, similar to how a person might respond during a real conversation. The GPT-Live voice model is available through the ChatGPT app on Android and iOS devices and on the web through any browser. Once you've entered voice mode, you'll see a responsive floating orb on the screen. This customization is not available on the GPT-Live-1 mini model, so currently requires a paid plan.
