OpenAI Improving Audio AI Models Ahead of Introduction of Personal AI Devices

SMRTR summary

OpenAI is enhancing its audio AI models to prepare for personal AI devices that users will control through voice commands rather than screens. The company's current audio-powered ChatGPT is slower and less accurate than text versions, prompting improvements before launching a new audio model in Q1 and its first personal AI device within a year. OpenAI plans multiple devices including glasses and smart speakers, competing with Google, Amazon, Meta and Apple in the emerging personal AI market.
