From AI Voice assistant to phone calls via ChatGPT: Expected announcements from OpenAI’s SPring Update event today – Crypto News

Published

on

OpenAI is hosting a Spring Update event today with plans to introduce some much needed updates to ChatGPT, and its GPT-4 AI model. The OpenAI event comes just a day ahead of Google’s annual developer conference, I/O 2024 and is being seen as an attempt by the Sam Altman led startup to steal some of Google’s thunder.

While there were reports about OpenAI starting a new search engine to rival Gooigle and Perplexity AI this week, Altman confirmed that that’s not going to happen just yet. Meanwhile, the OpenAI CEO also rejected the idea of his company announcing its latest language model, GPT-5. Notably, the OpenAI last updated one of its language models in November last year, and the AI chatbot is due for some much-needed upgrades. GPT-4 and GPT-4 Turbo are currently only accessible via a ChatGPT Plus plan which costs 1,650 per month. 

How to watch OpenAI Spring Update event: 

The Spring Update event will be live-streamed from 10:00 am Pacific Time or 10:30pm India Time on OpenAI’s official website. It isn’t yet clear if the company also plans to announce its latest offerings via its YouTube channel.

What’s in store at Spring Update event? 

OpenAI could announce a new AI voice assistant to rival Apple’s Siri and Google Assistant, the Information reported citing unnamed sources who have seen the new product. 

The new AI assistant is reported to offer faster and more accurate interpretation of images and audio compared to the existing transcription and text-to-speech models. The report states that OpenAI’s new voice assistant may also be able to get the better of GPT-4 Turbo at answering some types of questions but is still susceptible to hallucination (making things up with confidence).

A recent post on X (formerly Twitter) by developer Ananay Arora, spotted by The Verge, also reveals that OpenAI may be adding the ability to make phone calls in ChatGPT. Sharing the screenshot of call-related code, Arora stated that OpenAI has now has servers in place for video and audio calls.
