ChatGPT's Advanced Voice Mode is Starting to Rollout 🗣

OpenAI has started rolling out the new advanced voice mode for ChatGPT to a select group of ChatGPT Plus subscribers.

Details:

  • This feature, initially showcased at the GPT-4o launch event in May, faced delays due to safety concerns.

  • It will be accessible to a small number of ChatGPT Plus subscribers for now, with plans to make it available to everyone by fall 2024.

  • The new mode is noticeably more capable than ChatGPT’s current voice mode. It enables real-time voice interaction, allowing users to interrupt responses, receive audio outputs with different emotive styles such as singing, and enjoy more natural and intelligent conversational experiences.

The Sky voice, which caused controversy for its resemblance to Scarlett Johansson's voice in the movie 'Her,' will not be available.

TOGETHER WITH MASTERWORKS

2478 everyday investors shared $1,123,615 net profit on a Monet

Now you might be thinking: “what the heck are you talking about?” But keep reading, because this investment platform's users are already smiling all the way to the bank. Thanks to Masterworks, the award winning platform for investing in blue-chip art.

Every single one of Masterworks’ 16 sales has returned a profit to investors, for a 100% positive net return track record. With 3 recent sales, Masterworks investors realized net annualized returns of 17.6%, 21.5% and 35%.

How does it work? Simple, Masterworks does all of the heavy lifting like finding the painting, buying it, storing it, and eventually selling it. It files each offering with the SEC so that nearly anyone can invest in highly coveted artworks for just a fraction of the price of the entire piece.

Shares of every offering are limited, but Horizon AI readers can skip the waitlist to join with this exclusive link.

Past performance is not indicative of future returns, investing involves risk. See disclosures masterworks.com/cd

FRIEND

Meet A New AI Friend

Designed to be worn around the neck, Friend aims to combat loneliness by serving as a constant companion.

Details:

  • Friend connects to your phone via Bluetooth and listens to you constantly. Users can interact with the device by tapping the walkie-talkie button, receiving in-app responses, and getting proactive messages.

  • The basic white version of the Friend device is priced at $99, and preorders will begin today.

  • The company believes that wearing the device around the neck enhances the emotional connection, making it easier to interact with the AI companion compared to using a standard app.

The device is designed solely as an AI friend and not for productivity or therapy. It’s intended to be an AI companion you can talk to, and nothing more. Its creator, Avi Schiffmann, sees it as an 'emotional toy.'
