Gemini live has been able to do this for over a year now. I can just activate it on my phone and it really works surprisingly well, especially the interruption. I've tested it with my 95 year old Dutch grandmother and it switched seamlessly between English and Dutch with her and handled her poor hearing very well, including her asking for repetition. I'm a little surprised by how much OAI is playing catch up here.

Gemini live is also pretty decent at computer vision stuff too. I've used it while working on my bike & car a few times, with my phone camera and it'll circle/highlight specific screws and parts. You can set your phone up on a tripod and it'll walk you through complete repairs for things.

I used it for double checking some stuff while helping my friend build his PC! I had it in tight spaces and it helped me verify some details around which nvme slot to use first.

This is the opposite direction AI should be going. Human relationships are the most valuable thing we have, and so, naturally, technology seeks to intermediate and now replace them. I'm not Catholic, but this podcast presents a very interesting argument against talking to AI as if they were human: https://newpolity.com/podcasts-hub/debate-chatbots

Yes, every minute you spend texting or talking to a chatbot is a minute that you'd have spent talking to another human beings. Literally the only important thing in life, the basis of all value, the formation of self-identity, comes from communication with other human beings.

Such radical carbon chauvinism is ontologically evil. May those who hold this view reincarnate as durian fruits or cockroaches.

The demo video shows quite how rough around the edges this is.... Doesn't quite stop fast enough when you interrupt it. Can't find info quick enough so you have to change topic and then have it give you results later, etc. This is a move in the right direction, but there is lots of engineering still to be done!

You're right, and to me it's refreshing to see a promo video that shows how the real product works, rather than a sanitized over-produced edit that takes out all the flaws.

I'm currently watching Better Call Saul for the first time with my wife. The fact that they used old ladies for the Ad, and that it is evident they are reading from a prompt (fake-ish feeling) gives me strong James McGill vibes haha. Hopefully the actresses were paid handsomely.

I had preview access to this one for a few weeks. It's very good. I had one conversation that lasted a full hour while I was walking the dog, got some good brainstorming done against one of my projects. The best feature is that it can delegate questions out to GPT-5.5 in the background, so you're no longer restricted to a voice model that's several years behind the frontier. I did report a fun bug with it though: it…

That is a nice idea and all, but perhaps there are things our friends aren't good at talking about. Perhaps something that is very related to a work project? Or like when I go down the rabbit hole discussing quantum mechanics and astro physics with ChatGPT because none of my friends understand that at even my level, and I'm looking to learn more about it from someone/something that does know more than me.

I'm looking forward to trying this out because I find that doing discovery on certain things feels more natural with voice. The previous voice chat was such a dumb GPT-4 era model that I resorted to using the dictate feature with GPT-5.5 and had it read the text response back to me.

This is such a poor mischaracterization of OP that I actually started agreeing with OP more.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is gemini live the same app I have on my oneplus 15? I don't think that's full duplex?

it is not full duplex. I think this GPT-Live thing is the first full duplex speech to speech model

ehh, no? definitely not.

Does this support more than one user voice? Or, are there plans for this? I did not see that mentioned in the announcement.

(Atty from OpenAI here) You can choose among 9 voices in the app, all newly refreshed for GPT-Live. If you meant whether it can detect multiple people, it can (like in the livestream), but not always perfect. Would love to hear your feedback once you try it.

Any plans to add more international voices and dialects?

Wow. That's exactly what I hoped they would do.

This issue has held me back from using ChatGPT's voice mode as much as I otherwise would have, because I also use it for brainstorming while commuting, exercising, etc., and don't want it to feel stuck in the past.
