My favourite part of chatgpt voice is I have something in my settings that says something along the lines of "be succinct. Get straight to the point," or whatever.

So every single time I (forget and) voice prompt chatGPT it starts by saying "OK, I'll get straight to the point and answer your question without fluff" or something similar. ie it wastes my time even more than it would normally.

I agree on the voice mode... its really unusable now.

I feel like its been trained only tiktok content and youtube cooking or makeup podcasts in the sense that it tries to be super casual and easy-going to the point where its completely unable to give you actual information.

built something to fix exactly this. skips the realtime chattiness entirely - you speak, it waits until you're done, responds via TTS with actual text-quality answers (no dumbing down). also has claude/gemini if you want different models.

still early but happy to share: tla[at]lexander[dot]com if interested (saw your email in bio)

happy to share if anyone wants to try it

The "... just let me know if there is anything else you'd like to know." after every long-winded explanation is so infuriating.
