Advanced voice mode

Now, you can chat with your computer and get hands-free advice and answers while you work. Advanced Voice Mode offers more natural, real-time conversations, allows you to interrupt anytime, and senses and responds to your emotions.

OpenAI o1-preview & o1-mini

The macOS app supports our OpenAI o1-preview and o1-mini models—a new series designed to spend more time thinking before they respond. These models can reason through complex tasks and solve harder problems than previous models in science, coding, and math.

New text fade animation

We've refined the ChatGPT response animation with a smooth fade-in effect.
