Hey tech enthusiasts! 📱 If you’ve been eagerly waiting to chat with ChatGPT like it’s your new bestie, you’ll need to hold on a little longer. OpenAI just announced a one-month delay for its highly anticipated “Voice Mode” feature, pushing the rollout to July due to technical fine-tuning.
Why the Wait? 🤷♂️
The company says it needs extra time to boost safety measures and ensure its AI can handle millions of users without lag. Think better content filtering (👋🏻 no awkward responses!) and smoother real-time convos. Originally planned for late June, the feature will now debut with a small group of ChatGPT Plus users first.
Safety First, Vibes Later 🔒
OpenAI emphasized on X: “We’re leveling up how the model detects risky content and prepping our systems to scale globally.” A wider release for all Plus subscribers is eyed for fall 2024 – pending those crucial safety checks.
Beyond Voice: What’s Next? 🚀
While we wait, the company teased upcoming video and screen-sharing tools. This follows May’s GPT-4o launch, which lets ChatGPT chat via text, images, and voice – a key move in the AI arms race. Soon, you’ll even be able to interrupt ChatGPT mid-sentence, just like real talk! 🗣️
