## Overview

OpenAI on Wednesday launched GPT-Live, a pair of new voice models that fundamentally redesign how people talk to ChatGPT — replacing the company's existing Advanced Voice Mode with an architecture that can listen and speak simultaneously, much like an actual human conversation.The two models, GPT-Live-1 and GPT-Live-1 mini, are rolling out globally starting today across iOS, Android, and ChatGPT.com. GPT-Live-1 becomes the default voice model for paid ChatGPT users on the Go, Plus, and Pro tiers
