 Recent testing of OpenAI's ChatGPT model revealed an unexpected feature: it can unintentionally imitate users' voices. According to the system card, the AI model produced a voice that sounded similar to the user's in rare instances during Advanced Voice Mode conversations. This is not a new capability for GPT-4o, which can synthesize almost any type of sound found in its training data. OpenAI has safeguards in place to prevent this from happening and ensures authorized voice samples are used.
