OpenAI’s New Push: AI Voices For A Wider Range Of Applications.
The ChatGPT Creator Will Let Other Companies Build On Its Human Mimicking Voice Technology.
OpenAI, the folks behind ChatGPT, are letting any app developer use their tech to make their apps talk. Now by talk I do not mean just talk but actually have a real conversation!
This could be huge because it means we will probably be chatting with all sorts of AI programs before we know it. This sounds super cool but to be fair, a little freaky as well.
As we are all aware that OpenAI’s “advanced voice mode,” has been available to pro subscribers since July. The advanced voice mode has 6 AI voices with the ability to sound casual and expressive.
Now this very same technology will be offered to the thousands of companies which will of course pay to use OpenAI technology in their own products
The obvious reason to Open up its AI inventions to outsiders will eventually help grow OpenAI’s revenue from usage fees it charges each time an app taps its technology.
Regular influx of cash is crucial to OpenAI as it is seeking billions of dollars in new funding and considering restructuring to remove its business from the control of its existing nonprofit board.
