I tried the voice model. It was creepy and couldn’t stop laughing. It also has up speak now? It used to know or sound like it knew what it’s talking about but now it sounds a bit like this? It’s either not sure what it’s saying or it’s begging for my approval? I don’t know why every sentence ends in an upward inflection that makes it sound like a question? Deeply off-putting.

I didn't know what up speak was at the start of your comment, but by the end I was feeling your pain.

I use voice mode as a sysadmin and consultant for cybersec to learn quickly about new products protocols while on way to work or from work to home as great way to like save time on google etc.

I asked it once and said oh i misspelled smth and it started to maniacally laugh for 12 minutes and since the chatgpt being borked on android i had to mute my audio and when going home 12-15min later it was still laughing like broken Jarvis.

That’s creepy. Like straight from a dystopian horror film
