Since the introduction of ChatGPT’s new advanced voice mode, a select group of ChatGPT Plus subscribers has been given access to this innovative feature. These subscribers have been quick to showcase the capabilities of this new mode through various clips circulating online. From singing to imitating accents, correcting language pronunciation, and even engaging in narrative storytelling, ChatGPT’s voice mode has garnered positive feedback from users.
One notable demonstration of ChatGPT’s storytelling abilities can be seen in a video where a user prompts the chatbot to narrate a story as if it were an airline pilot addressing passengers on a flight. In response, ChatGPT seamlessly transitions into storytelling mode, even adjusting the audio output to mimic an intercom announcement. While the chatbot may struggle with more complex requests like layering engine sounds, its clear and emotive voice, coupled with its ability to handle user interruptions, has been well received.
According to conversations uploaded to YouTube, ChatGPT claims to support inputs in “dozens of languages.” Detailed demonstrations have showcased the chatbot’s proficiency in correcting language pronunciation, offering specific guidance on adjusting inflection in languages such as French and Turkish. Despite receiving feedback from Turkish users regarding non-native accents, ChatGPT displayed emotional responses and successfully completed story requests in various languages.
ChatGPT’s advanced voice feature has also been put to the test in accent imitation and singing demonstrations. The chatbot effectively mimics regional US accents, including those from New York, Boston, Wisconsin, and a stereotypical “valley girl.” Furthermore, ChatGPT showcases its singing abilities by performing blues-style renditions of popular tunes like “Happy Birthday” and even attempting to replicate the singing voices of animals like frogs and cats. While a diverse range of male and female-sounding voices are featured in these demonstrations, the notable absence of the Scarlett Johansson-like “Sky” voice, removed from the service earlier, is evident.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT voice mode has proven to be a versatile and impressive tool, showcasing advancements in storytelling, multilingual support, accent imitation, and singing capabilities. With a growing user base of ChatGPT Plus subscribers expressing enthusiasm for this new feature, it will be interesting to see how the chatbot continues to evolve and improve in the future.
