ChatGPT Voice Mode update: 3 new features

The new update for ChatGPT Voice Mode will purportedly allow users to have realistically paced voice conversations with ChatGPT, thanks to newly reduced response times. There are also some other neat utility features it can do now. According to Tom's Guide, the Voice Mode update will add at least three new features to ChatGPT:

• Live translate between languages

• Create sound effects while telling stories

• Do custom character voices

It's been a big week for ChatGPT, which announced the imminent rollout of its SearchGPT search engine just days ago. Whether it's through voice conversations or text searches, OpenAI's signature chatbot is certainly getting a workout as 2024 goes on.
