OpenAI applies new voice model to ChatGPT Voice
OpenAI said on Thursday it has improved ChatGPT Voice by applying a new speech model, GPT-Live, that understands conversational context in real time. The company said the update reduces cut-offs and response delays and enhances real-time interpretation. GPT-Live continuously processes audio, allowing the system to react mid-speech and handle resumed questions. OpenAI also plans to expand the architecture across backend models, input-output methods and API use cases.

ChatGPT for Apple CarPlay falls short on basic controls
Apple’s iOS 26.4 allows users to run a dedicated ChatGPT app on CarPlay and hold voice conversations, with past chats shown on screen. The feature is designed to minimize visual interaction while driving, so it does not support text input or reading long answers. Users must open the app manually each time, and it cannot control an iPhone or vehicle settings like Siri. Reviews say it feels more like a standalone chat app than a voice assistant.
