OpenAI’s new Advanced Voice Mode (AVM) of its ChatGPT AI assistant rolled out to subscribers on Tuesday, and people are already finding novel ways to use it, even against OpenAI’s wishes. On Thursday, a software architect named AJ Smith tweeted a video of himself playing a duet of The Beatles’ 1966 song “Eleanor Rigby” with AVM. In the video, Smith plays the guitar and sings, with the AI voice interjecting and singing along sporadically, praising his rendition.
“Honestly, it was mind-blowing. The first time I did it, I wasn’t recording and literally got chills,” Smith told Ars Technica via text message. “I wasn’t even asking it to sing along.”
Smith is no stranger to AI topics. In his day job, he works as associate director of AI Engineering at S&P Global. “I use [AI] all the time and lead a team that uses AI day to day,” he told us.
