ChatGPT Rolls Out Voice Chat Feature for Free Users

Jakarta – Currently, OpenAI launched the Voice Chat feature on ChatGPT. This aims to free users on both Android and iOS platforms. 

Initially launched in September, this feature was exclusively available to Plus and Enterprise subscribers, but as of Wednesday, it’s been extended to free users as well.

ChatGPT users can start a conversation with their assistant, which responds to them using a synthetic voice. 

All you have to do is press the headphones icon in the bottom right-hand corner of your smartphone screen, provided that the application is up-to-date.

Once you've launched this feature, you no longer need to hold the phone in your hand or even look at the screen.

All you have to do is talk to the voice assistant, which will immediately recognize the language (English, French, etc). 

All your conversations will be stored in your history in the form of written transcriptions, which you can then delete as you wish or keep as an archive.

"As an alternative to typing your question into a text, users can now simply tap a button and ask ChatGPT your question verbally. The AI Chatbot will convert your speech into text and feed it into the Large Language Model (LLM)," as reported by Android Authority. 

Having a two-way conversation will be an interesting experience. With its capabilities, users will feel like they have an assistant like Google Assistant or Alexa, but ChatGPT has a higher level of intelligence in presenting information.

To start a voice conversation on ChatGPT, there are a few steps to take first. 

The first step is to download the ChatGPT app which can be accessed through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. 

After successfully downloading the app, users are asked to go to settings, open the New Features menu, and activate the voice conversation option. 

Next, users only need to tap the headphone button located in the top right corner of the home screen and select their favorite voice from the five available voice options. 

Although Open AI's official website states that ChatGPT's voice feature offers various uniqueness, they explain that the experience is still equivalent to using ChatGPT conventionally, which is through the typing method.

Even though it is done by voice, the capabilities remain consistent. "This feature allows users to communicate through voice or convey information to ChatGPT verbally. 

Voice and pictures provide various methods for users to integrate ChatGPT into their daily lives. Take a picture at a famous location while traveling and start talking directly about the interesting aspects of the place.
