With a fair amount of system integration (no wake word available) missing, of course. Which rather sounds like a feature.

    I’m just happy to see Google drop the ball on so many things. Fuck Google.

    You can already somewhat do that with iOS and Shortcuts if you have the chatgpt app. But as OP says, it’s only to talk to. Can’t use it to set a timer or reminder. It’s neat but a lot of my voice assistant stuff is “call X person” or “reply to X”. If I want to talk to chatgpt, I usually open the app and turn on voice for a session.

    If ChatGPT can weasel itself into a true assistant with the ability to perform certain actions, then it might be a game changer for the voice assistant space. It’s so much better at understanding context than current assistants on your local device.

      its one of the use-cases that AI truly makes sense in to me, because it feels like voice assistant technology has really plateau’d, and an LLM seems like a good way to process natural language

    I can sort of see the appeal if it were able to plug into your smart home or something so it could respond to queries like “where’s the dog”, but as a general knowledge assistant it’s worse than useless (unless it magically doesn’t confabulate anything anymore)

    Android users can install Bing right now, GPT4 for free!

    Whether you’d rather funnel all your queries to Microsoft instead of Google… maybe let’s wait for another option.

        Sadly it is happening, people unpacking their new Windows devices have it as default in their browser and on their desktop.

        Don’t think the vast majority is changing it
