ChatGPT becomes even cooler, receives voice function

The functionality of the popular AI chatbot ChatGPT has been expanded: the voice function, which was previously only available to paid users, is now open to those using the free version of GPT-3.5. Now all users can communicate with ChatGPT - almost like with a real person, without having to look at the smartphone screen.

Let us remind you that the voice function was first introduced in September among paid users, but now it is available to everyone. The feature is based on an advanced text-to-speech model that allows you to generate natural speech from text and voice samples. OpenAI collaborated with professional speakers to develop unique voices that deliver chatbot responses. The technology also includes the Whisper speech recognition system, which allows you to convert the user's spoken speech into text.

To start using the voice feature, users need to install the ChatGPT mobile app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store and go through the registration process. Voice dialogue is activated using the appropriate setting in the application. Users can choose the voice they like best and start a conversation by pressing the button with a picture of headphones.

This update provides a more natural and intuitive way to interact with ChatGPT, expanding its potential for research, data analysis and solving a variety of problems.

NEWS.am Tech correspondents have already tested the new capabilities of the chatbot and are convinced that now you can really communicate with it as if you were talking to a person on the phone. The chatbot recognizes English speech well, and its answers sound quite natural.
