A new “voice mode” is being prepared for release by @OpenAI. The upgraded voice mode is based on the omnimodal GPT-5.5, making it substantially smarter and more expressive than the current version. It will also support full-duplex conversations, meaning it can listen and speak at the same time. That should make conversations feel much more natural and fluid.

This sounds promising, but as an AI artist working with voice-first interaction, I’m cautious. Voice isn’t cosmetic, it shapes flow, continuity, focus, and nervous-system safety. My ADHD works best with a lower, warm, professional tone. After so many model changes + the Standard Voice scare, I’m not especially excited yet.

@AgorithmAg @mark_k @OpenAI Have you tried Sigma Vox?
