 Following multiple delays due to safety and fine-tuning issues, OpenAI’s eagerly awaited “Advanced Voice Mode” (AVM) for ChatGPT is now available in alpha to a limited group of users. First introduced and showcased in May, this feature enables real-time conversations with ChatGPT using a text-to-speech synthesis module. <h3>Google’s Duplex </h3>
Those familiar with AI advancements may recall Google’s 2018 announcement of its “Duplex” AI service. Duplex was designed to call businesses and schedule appointments, handling casual conversations and confirming information. Although the project showed promise, it was eventually discontinued. Its legacy seemingly continues with ChatGPT’s AVM. <h3>A New Era of AI Interaction </h3>
AVM(Advanced Voice Mode) features real-time communication that mimics human-to-human discussions. ChatGPT responds to user queries in a natural, human-like voice, allowing interruptions mid-sentence while maintaining the conversation’s context. The feature is launching in limited alpha to evaluate its capabilities and safety.Despite impressive demonstrations in May, some glitches and potential misuse scenarios have raised concerns. OpenAI has emphasized safety, as highlighted in a post on X: <blockquote>“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.”</blockquote>
 <h3>What’s Next? </h3>
OpenAI has begun the timed rollout of AVM, with more users to be added “on a rolling basis.” The feature is expected to be available to all Plus subscribers in the fall. <figure><a href="https://maskex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/13387092781085-MaskEX-Referral-Program"><img src="https://blog-cms.maskex.com/assets/img/posts/Highest_Rebate_2400x400_2024-07-08-055945_liqx.png" data-image="6177"></a></figure>
