OPENAI PREPARES BIDIRECTIONAL VOICE MODE FOR ROLLOUT ON CHATGPT

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

OpenAI has started rolling out Bidirectional Voice Mode for ChatGPT. The company's new audio generation model, Bidi 1, lets the assistant speak, hear, and listen at the same time. It is able to hold the thread of a whole conversation and switch tasks on the fly if interrupted. The model can sing and beatbox, but there are some tight copyright restrictions. OpenAI has yet to make a formal announcement about the model, but some users are already seeing it in their model selectors.
