OpenAI delays rollout of controversial ‘voice mode’ 

Last month, OpenAI launched GPT-4o, a multi-modal evolution of GPT-4 that CEO Sam Altman called the “best model in the world.” A component of the demo was a new feature called “voice mode,” which would allow users to interact vocally with the model. 

Voice Mode was supposed to begin its gradual rollout in June, but OpenAI said Tuesday that it is delaying the launch of the feature to next month instead. 

The details: OpenAI said that it needs more time to reach its “high safety and reliability bar.”

• Part of the improvements it still has to make to the system revolve around 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,” the company said. 

OpenAI expects Voice Mode to roll out to Plus users sometime in the Fall. 

A cautious step around the backlash: The voice that was on display during the demo sounded remarkably similar to Scarlett Johansson, a connection that Altman emphasized with references to the movie Her, in which Johansson voiced an AI. 

• After the demo, Johansson released a statement saying that Altman had asked her to voice the model a year ago, and she refused. He then asked her again two days before the demo, and went ahead with it before receiving a response. 

Upon a request from her lawyers to detail the process behind the voice’s creation, OpenAI took it down, though it has maintained that the similarity is purely coincidental.
