OpenAI has launched upgraded transcription and voice-generating AI models, aiming to improve user interaction through more nuanced speech and accurate transcriptions. These models, part of OpenAI's broader vision for automated systems, allow developers to customize voice outputs for various contexts. The new text-to-speech model is designed to deliver realistic and steerable speech, while the transcription models promise enhanced accuracy, particularly in diverse speech settings. However, OpenAI will not release these models for open use, citing their complexity and the need for careful deployment.
