The new model will likely provide faster and more precise interpretation of images and audio compared to OpenAI’s current separate transcription and text-to-speech models.
It seems the model would enable customer service agents to “better understand the intonation of callers’ voices or whether they’re being sarcastic,” and “theoretically,” it could assist students with maths problems or translate real-world signs.
The model might surpass GPT-4 Turbo in “answering some types of questions,” but it remains prone to making confident errors.
OpenAI seems to be working on having phone calls inside of chatGPT. This is probably going to be a small part of the event announced on Monday.

It’s possible that OpenAI is also preparing a new integrated feature in ChatGPT for making phone calls, as suggested by Developer Ananay, who shared a screenshot of code related to calls. Arora also noted evidence indicating that OpenAI had provisioned servers for real-time audio and video communication.
Given that all these details stem from reports and leaks, it’s wise to await an official announcement from OpenAI. Whatever OpenAI has in store, will be revealed via livestream on its website on Monday at 10AM PT / 10PM IST.
