ChatGPT goes hands-free: Voice conversations now available for all users on iOS and Android

As spotted by Android Authority, ChatGPT’s latest update brings voice chats to all users of the ChatGPT app, available on iOS and Android. So instead of typing your query, you can now simply press the headset button and start a conversation with ChatGPT. The AI ​​chatbot seamlessly converts your spoken words into text, processing them through its Large Language Model (LLM). Likewise, it transforms text responses into spoken words, echoing responses to your queries. This feature mirrors the experience of voice assistants like Siri, Alexa or Google Assistant.

Users have the option to choose from 5 distinct voices by going to settings and selecting the Voice option. Plus, you have a wide range of over 35 languages ​​to choose from.

The conversational feature was initially introduced in September, exclusively for ChatGPT Plus and Enterprise users. However, the latest update extends this feature to all mobile app users.

AI is undoubtedly making its way into the world of mobile technology, with generative AI making waves in devices like the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro. Samsung, preparing for the launch of the Galaxy S24, is expected to integrate generative AI features on the device, including AI Live Translate Call, powered by Samsung’s own AI model, Gauss.

This trend is not exclusive to Google and Samsung, as Apple expects to integrate AI into the upcoming iPhone 16. OnePlus is also exploring new AI-based generative features and recently launched its own AI Music Studio, which allows you to generate songs based on prompts directly from your smartphone.
