OpenAI has released a long-awaited update for the ChatGPT app on Mac and Windows: the advanced voice feature. This feature, which was previously only available in the mobile ChatGPT apps, represents a new, much more natural method of interaction, allowing us to converse with the language model in a fluid manner. It also adds a more realistic voice and the option to pause during the conversation.
Hello, I’m ChatGPT, what would you like to talk about?
Although this update marks a significant advancement for OpenAI, it is not intended to replace the assistants we already know. The coexistence of ChatGPT with other assistants like Siri on Mac or Microsoft Copilot on Windows is clear, as their functioning is, in fact, entirely different.
Although in the case of the Mac, ChatGPT is integrated into Siri thanks to Apple Intelligence (which we can now use on Windows), the goal of each of our assistants is different. While ChatGPT can discuss particle physics with us, it is thanks to Siri or Microsoft Copilot that we can adjust the screen brightness, the volume, or perform a search in our files.
Beyond this, the updates in the ChatGPT desktop app come at a time when Apple and other manufacturers are renewing their devices to enhance their performance with artificial intelligence tools. Good news that, along with OpenAI’s new advanced voice mode, allow us to have a conversation with our computer in a way very similar to how we would with any person. Quite impressive, if we stop to think about it.
