#3Cool. Is there a reason as to why it was delayed so much?

was in the alpha. it had a lot, a lot of rough edges to sand out. i wish fellow engineers here, of all people, would be sympathetic that estimates sometimes are overly optimistic. considering the insane surface area of voice, its honestly impressive they were only off by a few months.

#6To my knowledge, this feature / model is the only one without any relevant competitor. Why is that? It seems to open a ton of use cases to me.

I am sympathetic to that however this is also a company that consistently promises the moon. Their CEO recently put out a blog post about AGI in a few “thousand days”. They clearly do have a hype issue and it’s fine to point that out.

#8I find the constant talkiness of the AIs shown in these demos to be super annoying. It's not a human, it's an AI bot. I don't want to hear it's faux-human faux-opinion about my question. I really hope that shit defaults to "off" or at least has a one-click disable.
Decades ago Douglas Adams already knew inserting gratuitous "Genuine People Personalities" in devices would be so annoying it would be comical (http://www.technovelgy.com/ct/content.asp?Bnum=1811). I don't get why OpenAI keeps releasing demos that make their product look comically dystopian.

#9This release will start a new age of UIs, where you don't use screens to interact with computers, but instead use your voice. Textural conversations were fun, but the voice functionality is what makes LLMs useful, because speed of communication is now comparable to what you could accomplish with GUI and at the same time a lot more human friendly. In my opinion one of the most important announcements in recent months. Although we will probably need open source competitior.

There are few use-cases where voice-only would be an improvement to screens. Voice-only is extremely limited in its discoverability and the information that it can relay to you.
Imagine going to a restaurant and not getting a menu, instead having the waiter stand there and tell you every menu item.
