I'm Obsessed With New ChatGPT Voice
548 segments
Okay, look at this. I haven't typed a
single word. Matter of fact, my hands
are here and chat is turning a real
prompt into a page I can actually use.
It's like, heck, using this stuff makes
me feel like Tony Stark, like Iron Man
sometimes. If you want, you can do a
little
I'll be honest with you. Throughout the
last week, there were some
announcements, but nothing came close to
my obsession with voice. It's just these
voice tools have become so good in the
past two weeks that I decided to make
today's video a follow-up to last week's
video which you guys seem to really like
that covered the new chaty voice that
just sits there and does things with
you. Now, for you to understand the
depth of my obsession here, check out my
chat account. Boom. 0% cuz I used it up
mostly through voice. I finally gave in
and I bought a pedal that I've been
playing around with that I map different
voice functions on so I can be
completely hands-free like this and
prompts just appear. Look, no hands,
mom. No, on a serious note though, the
voice features in chat are unbelievable.
I have not followed up on a new AI
feature in like 6 months. And what I
want to show you today is more use cases
and more ways that I found to go deeper
like combining it with projects or
skills. And I think this is the most
relevant thing this week. You know that
in this Friday video I always look at
all the things that come out and then I
select the one that I want to focus on.
And this week it is chat GBD voice and
other voice tools. Let's begin. So as
mentioned last week we looked at the new
chat GB voice. A bunch of you asked
whether it could do real desktop work
like use projects create reusable
skills. So I tested those exact things
and I want to show you that today. But
because uh OpenAI's naming can be a bit
confusing I want to clear things up
first. So, I'm using voice inside chat
GBT work on the new chat GPT desktop
app. That's this one right here. The
regular voice mode is built for
conversations back and forth. This
version can coordinate the tools and
permissions available to work. That's
the key to this and that's what's going
to make today's demos possible. And then
additionally, my shenanigans with this
pedal here are just hooked up to Whisper
Flow and I just use it across everything
wherever I work. Honestly, I just want
to note that I've been looking for like
a solution for email with AI and you
know there's things that help but my
email inbox is so diverse that I can't
really let go of answering emails. I
still have to do that and that's fine.
This it's not even chat voice. We'll
look at that today. But this pedal has
made it so simple. I just want to show
this. Imagine you have like some emails
open. Let's just pretend these three
word docs are free emails and they're
like, "Oh, I got to reply now." And you
would start typing. No, look, no hands.
I'm using the foot pedal. Hey, thank you
so much for reaching out, but after
considering some options, I decided
against this opportunity. Talk soon.
I had a look at your proposal, and I
actually really like it. I think we
could implement it as is. One note would
be to add some context on our previous
project to make this stick.
Nope, not interested.
That's how quickly you get through this.
Honestly, it just feels smooth. I have a
hard time describing it more precisely,
except that the way you kind of move
through tasks with a foot pedal is just
better. Look, people have been telling
me about this. I've been ignoring it,
but I'm fully foot pedal pil. You should
try to I got the fancy Elgato one. It's
like 70 or 80 bucks. And then I use it
with Whisper Flow right here if you
don't want to be paying $20 a month.
There's all these open source
alternatives. One particularly caught my
attention. It's called Quill if you want
to tinker around with it. I still use
Whisperflow cuz I like the convenience
um on my phone, on my laptop, on my
desktop. But yeah, there you go. You
could probably get a $30 foot pedal and
use open source Whisper Flow and get the
same thing at a discount. But now enough
foot pedal talk. Let's actually look at
these Chachi use cases and there's some
good ones. Okay, let's start with
building things cuz it's just so fun.
Generally speaking, like most people,
you probably have prompts and skills
laying around and they're all over the
place, not in one neat place. So, I
pulled five real prompts into one file
and I want one page that anybody can
actually use that I could easily share.
This is just an example that I recently
faced where I just wanted to share a few
skills with a friend and my default
sharing format often times has become a
custom site instead of doing a Word
document or a Google Drive folder. It's
just sexier to be honest. So, let's do
this. I'll just start a new voice chat
and I'll say build me a website with
sites using the file attached to this
chat. It's a prompt library for
nontechnical chat GBT users. Put the
context sandwich first. Group the other
prompts by what they help with. Add one
sentence explaining when to use each
prompt and give every prompt up copy
button. Keep it simple, readable, and
mobile friendly. Don't invent or rewrite
any prompt. Show a preview before
anything is published.
>> Okay, let me take a look.
>> And just like that, it's working
already.
>> Chat context for that attachment.
>> What I need to do now is attach this
file that I prepped.
There we go. A little prompt library
source pack. I will just send it. And
honestly, it's just this. It's the way
it kind of starts working as you're
talking and then you add things. I love
it. And again, you can combine it with
answering emails, right? You could
create sites to answer emails instead of
just writing text. That's more exciting.
Oh, by the way, for anybody wondering,
Eigor, how are you using chat if you ran
out of credits as you showed? Well,
>> I added the exact I'll build the
preview.
>> Paying per prompt. I just can't stop.
The preview is ready with the contact
sandwich first and each original prompt
grouped with a short when to use it note
and a copy button. I'm just restoring a
missing local component so you can
review it before I publish anything.
The unpublished preview is open now. It
keeps all five prompts unchanged, puts
the context sandwich first, groups the
rest by purpose, and adds mobile
friendly copy buttons.
>> All right, not bad. Now make the contact
sandwich the obvious starting point.
Remove any decorative sections that
don't help somebody use a prompt and
make the copy buttons easier to spot.
Like really easy. Got it. Let me tighten
that up. The preview now starts directly
with a bold, clearly marked context
sandwich. Decorative framing is removed
and every copy button is big, solid
green, and high contrast.
>> One more thing, check every prompt
against attached source file. Flag
anything you added or changed that
wasn't in the source.
>> Sure, I'll check that. This is a good
little tip that I found helpful
throughout the past weeks. Actually,
I've been doing this for a while. Trust
verify, especially when working with
Opus 5 these days. I
>> don't know. I'm not the biggest fan of
that model. Sometimes I just ignore
certain instructions. I feel like I
can't fully trust it where like 5.6 I
just trust. But Fable is just
unbelievable. So, I often times use Opus
4.8. Anyone else? Anyway, back to this.
Okay, publish it. All right, publishing
now. The reviewed version is ready to go
live with the source prompts preserved.
Exactly. It's processing for private
publish. Done. It's published.
Practically I prompt library. Open it
and let me know what you want refined.
>> And there it is. Just through speaking.
It's just something about the smoothness
of that while taking a while feels
right. It feels good. If you haven't
tried it yet, I recommend it. And
especially building little sides like
this on the side while doing other tasks
and just muting this thing. You could
also map your foot pedal to mute or
unmute yourself. And then you can just
have this sitting here all day until you
run out of credits. It's a new way of
life. Okay, so that's the flashy one
that produces an artifact and people can
try. But this next one is less flashy,
but probably more useful every single
week and it uses a skill in the middle,
which is something that was recommended
by a commenter last week. Shout out to
this comment. Great idea. I was trying
to add some context to some of these
repetitive tasks. And yeah, turns out
skills are the way to do it. If you
didn't know, skills are now present
inside of chat. And yeah, the same ones
that work in claude can also be imported
into here. So it's just great. So let's
do this quick little use case that I
personally face all the time, which is
somebody requesting time to meet and I'm
like, I don't know, I'm in the flow
right now. I don't want to be dealing
with scheduling and planning things like
that. So let's say Daniel, who helps
research some of these YouTube videos,
send me an email or a Slack asking for a
30 minute strategy call next week.
Normally I would have to open up inbox,
calendar, replies, events, then dig
through the context before the meeting.
Let's see if one voice conversation can
solve all of this. Okay. Find the newest
email from Daniel with subject YouTube
strategy sync next week. Tell me exactly
what he's asking for.
>> Let me pull that up.
>> Okay. So, you won't actually see the
email. Just pretend as if you saw the
email for the case of this demo.
>> Let me see what I can do here. From the
demo, Daniel is asking you to come
prepared to align on next week's YouTube
strategy, priorities, audience, content
angles. Then check my calendar from
Monday, August 10th through Friday,
August 10th. Okay. And then stop before
you suggest a time, draft a reply, or
create anything. I just want to know
first. Let me check your calendar. I'm
checking the Monday to Friday window
now. I checked Monday, August 10th
through Friday, August 14th. Monday and
Tuesday are busy. Wednesday is mostly
open except 7:15 to 8:15 p.m. Thursday
has several late morning and evening
blocks. Friday has no time. Just the
fact that it knows this still gets me.
Hey. Okay. So, look, every time we do
this, uh, I have to reiterate kind of
the meeting rules and how I like
scheduling. I like for meetings to stick
together rather than to be scattered
throughout the day. So, create a
personal Eigor skill called Eigor's
meeting rules. For this demo, my rules
are 30 minute meetings on weekday
afternoons in Lisbon time. A 15-minute
buffer before and after, never double
booked, choose the earliest valid
option, and always show me the reply and
calendar event before taking action. Ask
if anything is unclear, then let me
review and install the skill. Also, I
like meetings to stick together as
mentioned. So, package all of that into
a eigor meeting booking skill.
>> Got it. The skill is ready for review.
Open Eigore meeting booking to check the
details. Then tell me if you approve
installing it. That's so good.
All right. So now let's handle Daniel's
request with this skill.
>> Let me take care of that.
>> Give me a proposed time. Draft a brief
and friendly reply and show me the
calendar event with the title, attendee
date, time zone, agenda, all this stuff.
>> Right. I'll pull that together. Skill is
installed. I'm refreshing that week now.
Then I'll show the reply and event draft
without taking action. Propose for
Daniel Monday, August 10th, 12 to 12:30
p.m. Lisbon time. Reply draft asks,
"Would Monday, August 10th at 12:00 p.m.
Lisbon time work for a 30inut YouTube
strategy sync?" Event draft title is
YouTube strategy sync. Agenda is to
align on priorities, audience, content
angles, and next steps. Attendee is
Daniel, but I'll need his email before
sending. 50-minute buffers are reserved
on both sides. Nothing sent or created
yet.
>> Unbelievable. Put that in my calendar
and send the email.
>> Okay, I'll set that up. Quick question.
What email address should I use for
Daniel? I'll need it for both the
calendar invite and the email.
>> Just do daniel@gmail.com.
>> All right, using that. The calendar
event is created from Monday, August
10th at noon Lisbon time with Daniel
invited and the agenda included. I
couldn't send the separate email because
this chat still has no connected mail
account. And sure enough, there it is.
Great. If you'd like, we can connect
mail. So, I can send that confirmation
email, too. All right. So, now that we
have this, use the email thread, the
calendar event, and the YouTube strategy
files that you have in this project to
make a one-page briefing. Use the Eigor
demo clone project for context. Let's
sort that out. So, instructional moment.
This is the part that I didn't know
beyond creating and using skills with
voice. You can just tap into projects
and what he does is he spins up a new
chat and that chat is inside of a
project. So last week I did that I was
like oh it needs a new chat so we can't
do project but the chat can access the
project in which it's created which
means then it comes into here. So you
could set up projects as different
context containers and then just and
just reference them from here. stronger
own channel focus, timely educational
angles, human presenters, and model
agnostic teaching. I'm assembling the
one pager around those points and the
scheduled.
>> All right, I think you see the points.
That's really how you use skills and
projects with this. And yeah, I just
wasn't aware that it's um this easy and
those skills are a real unlock. You'll
just have to build a few skills for some
standard operating procedures or things
you do regularly. But yeah, that's just
good old prompt engineering, which AI by
now is really good at. So you can kind
of just speak things into existence. If
this isn't AGI on like a personal level,
heck, I don't know what is. So the
important concept here is that the skill
makes this reusable and the skill makes
it useful over and over again, whereas
like doing a one-off task like that is
useful once, but then restating the
rules of booking stuff every time. It's
probably just not worth it. Hey, if you
enjoy this type of real testing, make
sure to subscribe. I do this all the
time on the channel. We take new AI
features, turn them into workflows you
can actually use and show you where they
break or follow up on things that we
figure out over time. Okay, one more and
this is a really fun one that I found
and I wanted this for my own job, what I
do. But first, a quick correction. Last
week I said projects don't work and as I
established like you can access them
like this by opening this chat that's
then inside of project as you can see
right here. But also you can go into
just a project and start the voice
conversation. I feel like this one
didn't work last week. Am I crazy? Maybe
they enabled it. There's no workaround
needed. It just works. Okay, so here's
the last use case. So let's say a late
AI story just dropped after me recording
something. And I don't want chat GPT
just researching it blindly. I want to
hold on to the useful parts while I
decide what matters. And the useful
parts are usually on my screen, you
know, like I open different tabs, go
through things. So let's say we're
researching the new Hermes update. Use
this project's files and instructions.
Create a running note called late story
addendum for every source I approve.
Capture the source link, the exact claim
it supports, why it matters to this
audience, what still needs verification,
and one visual we could show to support
the video. Never add anything without a
source. Keep confirming facts and infer
separate sections.
>> Sure. Which saved project should I put
the late story addendum note in?
>> Take a look at this. Tell me the main
new claim, who published it, and the
publication date.
>> Let me take a look.
It says that voice now works inside
projects in the current chat GBT desktop
app published by AI news you can use on
August 6th, 2026.
>> No, this is what I meant. Look at my
screen now. Take a screenshot here.
>> Okay, let me check that.
>> H see how they two now added streaming
and conversational voice with bargeon.
This is the open call update I'm looking
for. All right, then. And then also
consider these Reddit comments that I
have on screen now.
>> Let me see those.
Uh, a few more down here.
>> I'm seeing the Hermes agent release post
and its comments. I'll treat the release
posts as the source for claims in the
comments as audience reaction or leads,
not proof. Checking those.
Got the extra comments. People are
asking if the talk feature replaces
transcription, expressing strong
support.
>> Okay, turn all of this into a one-page
recording brief. Start with the verified
headline and why it matters. and give me
free sourced claims, what to show on
screen, and the strongest counterpoint
and a 20 second uh hook.
>> Let me put that together. I've drafted
the recording brief, headline first, why
it matters, then three sourced claims,
plus screen suggestions, a counterpoint,
and the one thing not to say. The 20
second hook is framed around voice plus
approvals with a quick caveat. And boom,
you just get a thing right here. Usually
I would go for like a dozen sources and
this way it can get everything the
content, the comment sections, the
headers and it can just pull things
together really easily. It's like having
kind of a scribe. I don't know. It's
almost like commanding an assistant that
is on a laptop and saying, "Hey, do this
now. Look at this side. Now pull it all
together. Now prep it for me." I don't
know. It's not night and day to how
we're used to using CHP. But then also
it is it feels completely different. And
after using this for a while, my
takeaway is pretty simple. It's not just
better because speaking is faster than
typing. It's better when typing would
pull you out of your workflow state or
when tasks need various tools that you'd
otherwise keep switching in between. The
site was most impressive in terms of
like, hey, just do this boom boom boom
site. Meeting workflow is arguably the
most most practical. It's like everybody
essentially gets an assistant that can
manage their calendar like this and do
other things. The research scribe is the
one I'll probably keep using. That's one
for me personally. But overall, it's
just a shift in how I use this tool. And
I just really really wanted to let you
know because between this thing building
stuff over here and then me throwing up
a sticky note and with the pedal on the
floor kind of just dictating things into
here, I'm getting things done left and
right. Heck, I'm getting things done at
a speed that I'm not even used to. And I
use these tools all the time. It just
feels more fluid. I like it. And I think
you should try this too if you haven't
yet. As of other news this week, well,
it's actually I think one thing and it's
probably this openi release from a few
hours ago. Well, I guess on first day
and they're basically coming down with
pricing on chat GPT 5.6 sol, which
currently I do prefer over Opus 5.
Please leave your thoughts below. And
now they power both the instant and the
deep reasoning for plus and pro users
delivering more factual focused
responses. And free users now get the
Luna starting tomorrow, which is also an
upgrade. And there you go. That's what I
really wanted to share this week. If you
have any further notes, how I could
improve the way I work with it or if you
found anything else, please leave them
below. I want to see them. I think both
projects as context containers and
skills to empower whatever you're doing
are just so powerful. And honestly, this
use case of just getting a daily brief
of your different communication
platforms and your calendar every day
and then using this voice feature to
kind of interact with it and get through
any action items is just it's amazing.
It makes me feel like Tony Stark. And I
hope this slightly more enthusiastic
video than usual will make you feel that
way, too. And that's pretty much
everything I have to share for this
week. My name is Eigor Pagani, and I
hope you have a wonderful rest of the
week.
