OpenAI said Thursday that it has updated its ChatGPT desktop app to add support for ChatGPT Voice, allowing users to talk to the app to control AI agents and perform tasks on their computer.
The new feature takes advantage of OpenAI’s new family of voice models called ChatGPT-Live, which it launched earlier this month.
OpenAI said ChatGPT Voice works with both ChatGPT Work and Codex, and can also leverage computer usage skills to search websites and apps. Additionally, on macOS, with Appshots, users can allow the app to access what’s on their screen, including alt text.
At launch, the smartphone version of ChatGPT Voice featured smoother conversations and better handling of interruptions, but was not designed for performing actions on smartphones.
Thursday’s desktop update is more capable, allowing users to dictate complex commands that involve many steps and respond when ChatGPT needs their input.
In a demo video, OpenAI showed a developer asking ChatGPT to create a new thread, make a pull request, and find the root cause of a bug, with a single command.
The company said that users can use ChatGPT Voice in Codex from the iOS app using remote access.
Anthropic also updated its voice mode for Claude, which can leverage the company’s Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku models to complete tasks in apps like Gmail, Calendar, Slack, Notion, and Canva.
