GPT-Live-1 is now available in the OpenAI API at $0.05 per minute. The model adds full-duplex speech, interruption handling, and 12 voice options. It can listen and speak at the same time, handle interruptions and acknowledgements as they happen, and keep conversations moving while performing deep reasoning or actions. The model can control tone, space, and style through the system prompt. Early tests report 80% fewer interruptions than with previous turn-based systems.
