OpenAI has launched GPT-Live, a new family of voice models designed to listen and speak at the same time. Multiple outlets report that the rollout includes two model variants, GPT-Live-1 and GPT-Live-1 mini, and that these models are being made available globally. The new release is positioned as a step change in real-time voice interaction, enabling simultaneous turn-taking rather than waiting for a user to finish speaking before the system responds.
Quartz reports that OpenAI is replacing the existing Advanced Voice Mode in ChatGPT with GPT-Live models. The Hindu and Channel NewsAsia also describe the launch in terms of the models’ ability to both understand incoming speech and generate spoken responses concurrently. Investing.com similarly covers the launch, aligning with the core details that OpenAI is deploying GPT-Live voice models with simultaneous listening and speaking capabilities.
The reports do not include additional technical specifications or pricing details in the provided excerpts, but they consistently state that OpenAI is moving from an earlier voice mode to the GPT-Live family across ChatGPT globally.
