[iOS, Android] ChatGPT App Voice Chat - Free for All Users @ Apple App Store & Google Play Store

3070

iOS App

Saw this popular deal on mydealz and thought I'd go digging around for more info. Found out that this feature was made free two days ago.

Don't know much about ChatGPT so I think I'll just stick to learning Coolgen.

OpenAI introduced voice chats with ChatGPT on Android and iOS back in September, giving users the option to have actual back-and-forth conversations with the chatbot if they want to. The company only made the feature available to Plus and Enterprise subscribers back then, though, with the promise that it will eventually release it to other groups of users. Now, OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman has announced on X that voice conversations on ChatGPT have started rolling out to all free users on mobile.

    Can you get it to natively work with CarPlay?

      Maybe ask ChatGPT.

    • +8

      This would surely help the lonely drives to work when no one is awake/wants to hear ridiculous questions that it is far too early for..

    Now let's find a deal on a voice-changer AI so we can safely use this

  • +3

    Free for All iOS/Android Users

    Seems a little exclusive

  • +4

    Tbh, I don’t see this as a deal.

  • +7

    Registration and Personal Information Required. 😉

    • +12

      ChatGPT has probably trawled the dark web for my Optus personal info anyway.

    • -4

      Why does this matter to you?

      Small fish, big pond.

      • +6

        big pond, that was telstra not optus.

        • bruh, im laughing so hard rn

  • +4

    Isn't there a forum for free software?

  • +1

    Its kind of fun

    • -3

      Is chatGPT still around?

  • +16

    I love ChatGPT. I regret not being younger so I can spend more of my life taking AI for granted.

    • -2

      50 years down the road a lot of paper work and BS work will be automized and we’ll have 3-4 day work weeks and marvel at all of it and say “I wish I was young now”

      • +15

        … or none of us will have a job, either because AI is doing the work or because AI has killed each and every last one of us.

        • +10

          Who needs a job when our overlords have us mind controlled swiping at pieces of glass.

          • +3

            @00: …finding the cheapest stuff we dont need!

        • +2

          The only reason you won’t have a job would be people not needing work and you do choosing to not work.
          Just like robotic arms not making people unemployed but letting them work safer and more comfortable jobs, you will never be out of a job as long as you don’t want to.

          • +1

            @Larsson: @Larsson: Like in the automotive industry?

            • +5

              @syme321: Yes mainly but it goes for any industry. we automate stuff that is dangerous and unenjoyable, the value is still being created. if you don't pay the guy welding for 1 car , you are paying the guy who programmed the robot to make 3 cars. over simplified but this is how progress works.

              The only reason we still work as much as we do is because people want more and more. So exponential growth is creating exponential demand.

              edit: another example I thought of is coding. we don't keep machine code in the hopes that it keeps a whole bunch of people employed slaving away. we make them into higher and higher languages to create exponential growth.

              We stand on the shoulders of giants.

          • +2

            @Larsson: @Larsson "Just like robotic arms not making people unemployed but letting them work safer and more comfortable jobs, you will never be out of a job as long as you don’t want to".

            Bahaha, this statement is insane. Digital Intelligence's are replacing "thinking capital". 🤔 are we going to get safer "thinking"jobs….

            Also the robotics revolution hasn't really begun. A robotic "arm"… yeah thats right we all get jobs fixing the toothpaste lid robot like in Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory….

            Every company, or business would be anti business to not replace a task or a role with an Ai, that can be replaced.

            World Economic Forum "Around 40% of all working hours could be impacted by AI large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT-4, says a report from Accenture".

            Working hours exist, because there is work to do, if the work is still being done. But not by humans.

            Are we going to find almost 50% of productivity out of thin air…?

        • Lets ask ChatGPT

          In the future, will AI be able to take my job or extinguish human life? If so, how would this occur so we can prevent it happening?

          The impact of AI on jobs and its potential risks are subjects of ongoing debate among experts. AI has the potential to automate certain tasks, leading to job displacement in some industries. However, it also has the capacity to create new jobs and enhance productivity in various sectors.

          Concerns about AI extinguishing human life typically center around the ethical and safety aspects of advanced AI systems, such as autonomous weapons. It's crucial to note that responsible development and deployment of AI technologies can mitigate these risks. Several measures can be taken to prevent negative outcomes:

          Ethical Guidelines and Regulations: Governments, organizations, and researchers can collaborate to establish and enforce ethical guidelines and regulations for AI development and use. This includes guidelines for responsible AI deployment and strict regulations on potentially harmful applications.

          Transparency and Explainability: Ensuring transparency in AI systems and making them explainable can help build trust among users and stakeholders. Knowing how AI algorithms make decisions allows for better accountability and understanding of potential risks.

          Human Oversight: Implementing systems that involve human oversight in critical decision-making processes can serve as a check on AI systems. Humans can intervene when necessary, especially in situations where ethical considerations are involved.

          International Collaboration: Addressing the global impact of AI requires international cooperation. Governments, organizations, and researchers should collaborate to establish international standards and agreements that ensure the safe development and deployment of AI technologies.

          Public Awareness and Education: Raising awareness about AI, its capabilities, and its potential impacts is crucial. Educating the public and policymakers can lead to informed decisions and policies that prioritize safety and ethical considerations.

          Continuous Research and Development: Ongoing research into the ethical and safety aspects of AI is essential. This includes developing techniques for AI systems to be more robust, secure, and aligned with human values.

          By taking a proactive approach to these measures, it is possible to harness the benefits of AI while minimizing the risks associated with job displacement and potential harm. It is important for society as a whole to actively participate in the responsible development and deployment of AI technologies to ensure a positive and secure future.

        Every technology driven efficiency that has created value has resulted in that value being captured by business, and an expectation that workers need to work harder - not relax with better work/life balance.

        • +2

          Right, first of all that value doesn't go into the ether. It either gets passed down on to people in the form of more jobs or better salary or get used to grow the company to create more value. It does not, however, trickle down to the people who create the value nearly as fairly as it should if that's what you are trying to say. But again, doesn't mean it's gone into the ether.

          But get what you are saying and certainly do agree. Could we be working 4 day weeks with even a little better pay? I say yes (with zero data). And I would prefer to. I don't know the solution to that unfortunately.

        • +2

          Check out Historia Civili's thoughts on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvk_XylEmLo&t His research finds that work used to be much more leisurely before modern innovations like factories and clocks came along. They made the owners very rich and made the workers miserable compared to how work used to work.

          Also check out every single one of his other videos, especially if you like ancient roman stuff.

          • @AustriaBargain: He’s missing a ton of crucial info. I agree with the general premise, but he’s really not qualified to make those conclusions with the one sided perspective and no data to back it up from many other perspectives. Including conveniently ignoring things are cheap because people slave away making products for them in China.

            • +1

              @Larsson: He does a lot of research for his videos. He says its takes months of research, which is why there are many months between videos. But he's not publishing a scientific paper, he's not obliged to cite every claim he makes.

              • +1

                @AustriaBargain: What I am saying is, what he says doesn’t go beyond an “opinion”.

                • @Larsson: Well presumably his research did find medieval working habits and such. Why shouldn't he have an opinion about what he found?

                  • +1

                    @AustriaBargain: He can have an opinion and air it too. He should, the more supported the better also. So I am A okay, or happy he’s doing these videos.

                    But I am saying his conclusions something take with a grain of salt.

                    Like sure “we don’t have to work as hard anymore and we can buy all the clothes we need with very kıtırlı effort” but you forget where your clothes come from and why they are so cheap. You don’t have to work so hard and pay too much for clothes because someone practically is getting slave wages in China. Conveniently ignoring that and looking at a country at the very top of the wealthy nations list is just ignorant at best, manipulating at worst.

                    • @Larsson: Well presumably his ideal work less system would apply to the whole world and not just to the US. So his shirt may cost $6 under the system instead of just $4.50.

      • Yeah that's not how capitalism or technology works

      • Nah, we will mostly be epsilons serving our alpha overlords that control an oppressive Big State..
        At least the happy pills will work. Mostly.

      • 50yrs…mm sooner. The labour vacuum this technology creates will be pretty massive. 2 decades imo (based on "experts").

        • This certainly does happen. Retraining not always is easy. Sometimes it a full generation until we figure out how to employ people in other ways.

          • @Larsson: 100%. I like the analogy of civilisation ploted across a graph like a wiggly line inclining. X axis time, and Y axis (general) improvement in all metrics. Obviously non-linear and random, but a general increase in utility.

            In other words, as societies evolve and increase technology, we have better health, less premature death, more time for leisure, generally more freedoms, etc

            BUT life doesn't care whether you are born on an up wiggle or a down wiggle. Those born too early may find themselves on a down turn with Ai (another example is 1930's depression, war, then up curve of prosperity), and those born in later decades may miss the labour vacuum and be born on a up curve (ie. benefit the most from Ai).

            Either way this will be the biggest change for society since the industrial revolution. What scares me is how unprepared we seem to be.

  • +1

    will this mine all the personal data on my phone ?

    • +6

      Yes, all your nude pics too

      • +10

        The app would uninstall itself from my phone.

  • i wish they would add jarvis from ironman, its probably a copyright issue tho, unless they can find a brit accent dude who sounds the same and call him harris instead of jarvis

    • Train an AI voice on a variety of RP male voices that sound like Paul Bettany, then call it Jeeves - since that's a more appropriate name anyway is copyright free.

      If disney come calling you can prove that you never touched their IP.

      • nice, also Arnold schtzenigger voice from the terminator would be a great addition

  • Confirmed, this new feature lives

  • This is great, just the other day I wanted to set my Action button on my iPhone 15 to “ask ChatGPT” and replace Siri, but it required text input. Now I can “start a voice conversation”!

    • +1

      Is there a shortcut to run voice ChatGPT via Siri command?

  • +4

    I don't want to be that guy. But this is probably the point where the machines take over… I for one welcome it. All hail the machines…

    • +3

      I’ll be back.

    • Technically won't happen. Cos someone from the future should have stopped it already. At least on my timeline.

    They are collecting data and engaging in questionable activities behind the scenes. Sam's dismissal is a direct result of this, and Elon, aware of these practices, has been warning everyone on X.

    • +16

      Source= Elon: trust me bro

    • Isn't Sam back now?

  • If it doesn’t show up for you, deleting and reinstalling the app on iOS works. I also wouldn’t say it’s a deal, but good to try out

  • +1

    This is pretty cool. Surprisingly quick.

  • I enjoyed practising in Esperanto. Now waiting for Bard to learn that skill
    Bonŝancon ;)

  • +1

    Just tested it, pretty cool. The fidelity and naturalness of the speaking voices is amazing.

    That said I had set up an iOS shortcut a few months ago to chat to chatgpt via siri and it works well. I just say "Siri let's chat" and it activates chatgpt straight away. This would be faster than opening up the app and using the in-app native voice. And produces same results.

  • +2

    Nice! Tried it in Chinese and it speaks like a guai lou lol

    • +7

      "Gweilo or gwailou is a common Cantonese slang term for Westerners. In the absence of modifiers, it refers to white people and has a history of racially deprecatory and pejorative use."

      • Was that what chatGPT said?

      • I thought it applied to anyone who wasn’t Chinese?

        Anyway, sticks and stones….

  • can anyone explain why I would need this app when I can chat with real people by calling them.

    • +4

      Yeah but they might not be intelligent or rather artificially intelligent.

    • +1

      Why would anyone use google when you can just ask a random person the question instead bahaha

  • +4

    Does this still require your phone number for absolutely no good reason?

    • +1

      Did not ask me for any phone number.

    • Perhaps being hit on by AI?

  • +2

    Do you have to do anything special to activate voice chat? I just downloaded on Android and don't have the option. Even the chat told me it's not available on Android.

  • I'm confused, doesn't chatgpt cost subscription? So how is this free?

    • You pay for the latest version of ChatGPT and other things.

      • Explain please?

        So you get the full version of a previous build?

        • Yes, i believe you get the full version of 3.5

          • @Goremans: ahhh thanks, tried 3.5 and pretty cool :)

    • ChatGPT 3.5 is free. You can pay for Plus to access 4.0 plus other features. Voice is now free across all plans.

  • +1

    Doesn't show up for me, even when reinstalling app. :(

    • You don't see a little headphones icon next you the text entry field?

    • Does not show up for me either.

  • I installed the app and tried the chat function. It worked. Although, it still gives pretty basic information and further research will be required.

  • wow.. this worked better than expected. - Android Samsung S23

  • I'm guessing there's no way to make this my default voice assistant on Android, yet?

  • It showed up for me after some initial faffing around, but for some reason it's insanely quiet when answering questions (but not insanely quiet when I select the voice in configuration screen). Weird.

    • Same for me. Like it playing as a voice call, not speaker

  • Huh? Why is this only a deal now. I’ve downloaded chatgpt on my iPhone for a while now and also used the voice function. It’s just a scribe voice to text function.

    • What you're talking about is not new. This deal on the other hand refers to voice conversation. No sending or receiving text via voice to trxt

  • What does our AI friend say is the best stock / investment etc in a 3yr turnaround?

  • I asked chatgpt if I can get it working on Google home hub (max) and it said sure just ask "Hey google, talk to chat GPT".

    Tried that and Google didnt understand. Wonder if its region locked or just doesnt work for everyone.

  • +1

    Wow it's freaking impressive. Like the movie her

    • +1

      Yeah, very quick responses. Great movie too.
