OpenAI is continuously enhancing the user interface of its Advanced Voice Mode in the macOS application, aiming to provide users with a more convenient and efficient experience. In the latest update, the option to add images via the Voice UI has been officially enabled with full functionality. Previously, this option was disabled, but now users can easily upload images that are directly displayed within the interface, facilitating interactive discussions with ChatGPT. It is important to note, however, that ChatGPT currently cannot directly "view" the uploaded images, though they are visually presented in the UI after uploading.
Additionally, users now have the option to take photos using their laptop's camera, offering a practical feature currently available. However, functionalities such as screen sharing, camera sharing, and video sharing remain unavailable at this time, and OpenAI has not yet announced any plans regarding the rollout of these features.
Beyond the upgrade to the image upload feature, OpenAI has fine-tuned the appearance of certain messages. For instance, messages initiating a new chat using Advanced Voice Mode now feature a completely redesigned user interface, making operations more intuitive. Notably, after conversations involving video sharing, ChatGPT will prompt users to explicitly share videos to enhance model performance. This prompt appears when users have enabled the option to share video data for model training. Although this option is not currently available in the user interface, it is expected to be included upon the official release of screen and video sharing functionalities.
OpenAI's next significant step may involve introducing a Canvas editor feature, which has been identified in previous developments. However, integrating the Canvas editor may require additional time to fully launch the voice mode. Unless OpenAI opts to release the voice mode without video and screen sharing capabilities initially, users might need to wait longer to experience the complete functionality.
Overall, OpenAI is diligently working to enhance the Advanced Voice Mode in its macOS application, striving to provide users with a more enriched and convenient experience.
