Some platforms integrate ChatGPT with voice recognition tools, but that's done outside of ChatGPT itself.
ChatGPT currently only processes text inputs. It doesn't have the capability to listen to or interpret audio directly.
OpenAI has other products like Whisper that handle audio recognition, but ChatGPT is text-based.
I used a third-party app that combines ChatGPT with audio input, but it's not a native feature of ChatGPT.
I hope they add voice features in the future, it would make interactions more natural.
