OpenAI rolls out GPT-Live voice model worldwide
3 min read

OpenAI announced global rollout of GPT-Live, a new voice-model architecture that can listen and speak at the same time and handle complex work in the background using GPT-5.5. The technology uses a full-duplex setup to allow brief acknowledgements, natural pauses or interruptions, and improved handling of background noise. Two variants will ship: GPT-Live-1 for paid tiers and GPT-Live-1 mini for free users, and the experience adds visual info cards for topics like weather and stocks. The company included voice-specific safety measures and limited voice impersonation, but video or screen-sharing voice calls are not yet supported.
GPT-Live listens and speaks simultaneously and delegates hard tasks to GPT-5.5
