GPT-Live is OpenAI’s new full-duplex voice model for ChatGPT Voice. It can listen and speak at the same time, handle pauses and interruptions more naturally, and delegate harder search or reasoning work to frontier models in the background.
Hi everyone!
GPT-Live is OpenAI’s new voice model series now powering ChatGPT Voice.
The important change is full-duplex interaction. It can listen and speak at the same time, so you don’t have to speak in perfect turns or wait for a clean pause every time.
You can pause, interrupt, ask it to stay quiet, or let it give small listening signals without taking over the conversation.
For harder work, GPT-Live can delegate to a frontier model in the background. At launch, that means GPT-5.5. Hopefully 5.6 soon :) So the voice layer keeps the conversation moving while search, reasoning, or more complex work happens behind the scenes.
This feels closer to how a real voice assistant should work. One layer handles timing, listening, and flow. Another handles the deeper work when needed.
Take out your phone and talk to ChatGPT Voice today - maybe you’ll get a small hint of what OAI’s future hardware interaction could feel like 😉
