OpenAI has started rolling out Advanced Voice Mode to a small group of ChatGPT Plus users. The company announced the rollout in a post on X today.
Advanced Voice Mode offers more natural, real-time conversations, allows you to interrupt anytime, and senses and responds to your emotions. Users in this alpha will receive an email with instructions and a message in their mobile app. We'll continue to add more people on a rolling basis and plan for everyone on Plus to have access in the fall. As previously mentioned, video and screen sharing capabilities will launch at a later date.
OpenAI first showed off the feature at an event in May; however, it was delayed following safety concerns and a complaint from Scarlett Johansson, who claimed the voice sounded like hers.
The company says it has built systems to enhance safety and prevent the model from using voices other than the four presets.
Since we first demoed advanced Voice Mode, we've been working to reinforce the safety and quality of voice conversations as we prepare to bring this frontier technology to millions of people. We tested GPT-4o's voice capabilities with 100+ external red teamers across 45 languages. To protect people's privacy, we've trained the model to only speak in the four preset voices, and we built systems to block outputs that differ from those voices. We've also implemented guardrails to block requests for violent or copyrighted content.
A detailed report on GPT-4o's capabilities, limitations, and safety evaluations will be shared in early August.
Notably, Apple has partnered with OpenAI to integrate ChatGPT access into experiences within iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia. You can learn more about those upcoming features here:
