NEW: ChatGPT’s ‘Live Camera’ video features were just found in the code of the latest beta.

Six months after their initial demo, OpenAI's visual AI could be ready for testing — and Advanced Voice Mode could soon be getting ‘eyes’

The code discovered in v1.2024.317 reveals:
—Live camera functionality
—Real-time processing
—Voice mode integration
—Visual recognition capabilities

The tech was initially showcased in an OpenAI demo in May, with Advanced Voice Mode interacting with a dog in real time: @AndroidAuth first spotted the code in the latest beta:

Don't use for live navigation or decisions that may impact your health or safety.

Meta just announced a ton of new AI announcements across Meta AI, Llama, Ray-Bans, and more.

Here’s everything important announced live from here @ Meta Connect:

1. Meta AI is getting its own voice mode!

2. Meta AI can now ‘see’ images!

Similar to ChatGPT, you can now share photos and have Meta AI reply to any photo in chat.

But where Meta is going a step further is by allowing users to actually edit photos, like removing an object, adding a hat, or changing backgrounds, etc., all within the chat.

Rolling out in the US only for now (unlike voice mode, which is rolling out to US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand over the next month)
