ChatGPT Voice is available in the service’s mobile application and is hidden under the headphones icon. The feature allows you to enter a query using your voice and listen to the results almost instantly.
In the demo video, the company played up the drama that has been going on at OpenAI in recent days after the sudden departure of Sam Altman. Someone asked ChatGPT: “It’s been a long night for the team, and we’re hungry. How many 16-inch pizzas should I order for 778 people?”
That’s about the number of people working for the company. The vast majority of them were ready to leave OpenAI if Altman had not returned.
OpenAI first introduced the feature in September, but it was available only to ChatGPT Plus subscribers.
