- Subscribers paid by Chatgpt get an improved vocal mode that looks more like humans than before
- He can also manage live translations in other languages
- There are still some minor problems
All Chatgpt users on the paces (so it’s more, pro, teams and Enterprise Users) just obtained a nice little upgrade to its advanced capacities in vocal mode which makes it much more natural and human when they speak to you.
Described by Openai as “significant”, improvements improve the intonation and natural votes in advanced chatgpt vocal mode. These are small adjustments, but it is often the tiny details that make all the difference in making a computer voice realistic.
If you listen carefully now, there is a more subtle intonation and a realistic cadence in the voice of Chatgpt, and it began to include breaks to emphasize. It also seems more natural when it expresses emotion, whether empathy or sarcasm.
In addition to improvements in the quality of the voice, Openai added a better translation between languages. Now you can say something like: “Can you translate this into Spanish?”, And Chatgpt will translate everything you say in Spanish until you say to stop.
The applications that can do so, like Google Translate, already exist, but be able to do everything in the Chatgpt application on your phone is practical and practical.
Better than before
I tried the advanced vocal mode after the update, and it certainly seems different than before. You can have an immediate taste of how it sounds by asking him to say something sarcastic. When you do it, you will hear the new Tonal Range Chatgpt use and the way it uses breaks with a large effect.
I compared this to ask Gemini Live exactly the same thing, and the new Chatgpt vocal mode had a much richer expression of emotions.
It is also interesting to compare the quality of the voice on a free chatgpt account with chatgpt on a paid account now – the difference is really like night and day.
Man or machine?
The new chatgpt is certainly more human, but I would not say that it still has the level where he could deceive anyone who was a real human.
There are still some quirks similar to the computer that move away from time to time when you are in vocal mode. In fact, Openai is aware of this and has published a note on its limits, saying:
“During the tests, we observed that this update can sometimes cause minor decreases of audio quality, including unexpected variations in tone and height. These problems are more visible with certain voice options. We plan to improve audio consistency over time.”
He also issued a warning concerning hallucinations:
“In addition, rare hallucinations in vocal mode persist with this update, which leads to involuntary sounds resembling advertisements, charabia or background music. We are actively studying these problems and work on a solution.”
The upgrade is already live, simply press the Voice composer icon on the right in your Message Composer window inside the Chatgpt application on your phone to use it.
