OpenAI announces a new voice option for the free version of ChatGPT. Through their social networks they showed a tutorial on how it works, with a practical joke that refers to the dismissal of Sam Altman as CEO of the company.
The place Digital Trends notes that the message was published through the company’s X account. The mockery is direct towards the company’s employeeswho rebelled against the actions of the OpenAI board of directors, which removed Sam Altman as CEO.
Most of the workers signed a letter threatening to leave for Microsoft, a company from which they already had job offers, if Altman was not reinstated as CEO.
The mass of OpenAI employees is 778 and more than 650 signed the statement showing discontent over the dismissal of Sam Altman. The action worked and the company’s co-founder returned.
Then, OpenAI itself takes charge of the situation in the announcement of the new ChatGPT function, artificial intelligence to which you can now ask questions via voice notes, and obtain an audible response.
The message on X’s account reads: “ChatGPT with voice is now available for all free users. Download the app on your phone and tap the headphones icon to start a conversation.”
In the example, a user tells ChatGPT: “It’s been a long night for the team and we’re hungry. How many centimeters of pizza do we need for 778 people?”.
Artificial intelligence, innocent of the double meaning of the question, answers the requirement as specified. However, the question refers to the stormy days that have been experienced in the company since last Friday.
