We're sharing an update on the advanced Voice Mode we demoed during our Spring Update, which we remain very excited about:
We had planned to start rolling this out in alpha to a small group of ChatGPT Plus users in late June, but need one more month to reach our bar to launch. For example, we’re improving the model’s ability to detect and refuse certain content. We’re also working on improving the user experience and preparing our infrastructure to scale to millions while maintaining real-time responses.
As part of our iterative deployment strategy, we'll start the alpha with a small group of users to gather feedback and expand based on what we learn. We are planning for all Plus users to have access in the fall. Exact timelines depend on meeting our high safety and reliability bar. We are also working on rolling out the new video and screen sharing capabilities we demoed separately, and will keep you posted on that timeline.
ChatGPT’s advanced Voice Mode can understand and respond with emotions and non-verbal cues, moving us closer to real-time, natural conversations with AI. Our mission is to bring these new experiences to you thoughtfully.

These improvements in capabilities can also be leveraged to improve safety. Today we’re releasing a paper on deliberative alignment that shares how we harnessed these advances to make our o1 and o3 models even safer to use. openai.com/index/delibera…
What’s changed since the preview? A faster, more powerful reasoning model that’s better at coding, math & writing.
o1 now also supports image uploads, allowing it to apply reasoning to visuals for more detailed & useful responses.
OpenAI o1 is more concise in its thinking, resulting in faster response times than o1-preview.
Our testing shows that o1 outperforms o1-preview, reducing major errors on difficult real-world questions by 34%.
The updated OpenAI o1 system card builds on prior safety work, detailing robustness evals, red teaming insights, and safety improvements using Instruction Hierarchy. It maintains a "medium" risk rating based on testing with an expanded suite of evaluations, reflecting it is safe to deploy. openai.com/index/openai-o…
