Build more natural voice experiences with GPT‑Live‑1 in the API
Summary
OpenAI has released GPT-Live-1, a voice model available in the API that allows developers to build voice-enabled applications where the AI can listen and speak simultaneously, handling interruptions naturally without the delays caused by traditional systems that chain together separate speech-to-text, language processing, and text-to-speech components. The model improves on previous versions by better managing interruptions, background noise, and long conversations while allowing developers to customize tone and style through prompts and delegate complex reasoning tasks to other models running in the background.
