LATEST NEWS

OpenAI’s New AI Voices Are Here!

OpenAI has introduced next-gen audio models for text-to-speech (TTS) and speech-to-text (STT), allowing developers to create AI voices with customizable styles. The update also improves speech recognition across multiple languages.

  • The GPT-4o-mini-tts model can adjust its speaking style using simple text prompts like "speak like a pirate" or "use a bedtime story voice".

  • The GPT-4o-transcribe model achieves state-of-the-art accuracy in speech-to-text, surpassing OpenAI’s previous Whisper models.

  • OpenAI launched openai.fm, a demo platform where users can test different AI voice styles in real time.

AI voice technology is becoming a key part of apps and digital assistants, with customizable speech styles making interactions more natural and engaging. However, OpenAI's voices still lag behind competitors like Sesame and ElevenLabs in realism, at least for now.

Claude Can Now Search the Web!

Anthropic’s AI chatbot, Claude, now has the ability to search the web. This feature is currently in beta testing for paid users in the U.S., with plans to expand to free users and other countries soon.

  • Users can enable web search in the Claude web app settings, but it is currently available only on Claude 3.7 Sonnet.

  • When using web search, Claude cites its sources, allowing users to verify the accuracy of the information.

  • Web search puts Claude on par with AI rivals like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Le Chat, as Anthropic adapts to growing competition.

This update improves Claude’s knowledge with real-time information, but like other AI chatbots, it may still generate incorrect or misleading responses. As AI models continue to evolve, verifiable and accurate sources remain crucial.
