Rollout of Advanced Voice Mode
OpenAI has begun rolling out its advanced voice mode, a significant upgrade from previous AI voices. This new voice technology is dynamic, allowing users to specify emotions and tones, such as speaking out of breath or singing with inflection. Unlike traditional AI voices that rely on static audio files, this model offers a level of expressiveness that mimics human conversation more closely. The rollout is set to be completed for all Plus users by the end of fall, following an extensive wait period of four months.
