ChatGPT-4o, the latest iteration of the popular chatbot, has been making headlines. However, users have expressed frustration over the unavailability of the new voice feature, which was expected to be available last week. CEO Sam Altman took to social media to provide an explanation and address the concerns raised by users.
Altman clarified that the new voice mode is still under development and is not yet widely available. The current version accessible to users is the older ChatGPT-4 model. He reassured users that the upcoming voice feature is worth the wait and encouraged them to be patient.
Users responded to Altman’s announcement with a mixture of reactions. Some expressed disappointment at the delay, while others were eager for the release of the new feature. The announcement has sparked discussion online, with some questioning why the feature was not ready before its announcement.
OpenAI has recently been in the news due to the departure of its co-founder, Ilya Sutskever, who was instrumental in the development of ChatGPT. Despite his departure, CEO Sam Altman has praised Sutskever’s contributions and recognized him as one of the leading minds of our generation.
