🧠 LTM #53 OpenAI NEW Advanced Voice Mode

News
OpenAI Rollout Advanced Voice Mode 🗣

• OpenAI has launched Advanced Voice Mode currently limited alpha for selected Plus users. Users will receive an email invitation and see a tooltip in the app if they are eligible. Daily usage is limited, with a warning issued when 3 minutes of audio remain.

• Advanced Voice Mode doesn't support memory or custom instructions, nor does it allow generating musical content. Conversations can be resumed in advanced Voice, text, or standard Voice Mode, but transitions to advanced Voice won't carry over memory or custom instructions.

• Audio from conversations may be used to train models if users opt in by sharing audio. Users can opt out by disabling the “Improve voice for everyone” setting in Data Controls. Audio is stored if shared, with measures to reduce personal information.

Runway Release Image to Video Alpha 🎑

• Runway's Gen-3 Alpha allows users to use any image as the first frame of video generation, enhancing artistic control and consistency. This update supports both image-only and image-text prompts.

• The unique feature of Gen-3 Alpha enables creators to select an image as either the first or last frame of their video, offering greater creative flexibility in video production.

• Unlike other models like OpenAI’s Sora, Runway's Gen-3 Alpha is fully available now, positioning it as a leading AI video generation tool for creators.
