Live voice shares what it has found while it works on a long answer
For everyone who works with an AI employee
Part of Chat with your AI employees on your phone and tablet
Talking with your AI employee in live voice? While it works on a longer answer and you stay quiet, it may tell you briefly what it has found so far, the way a colleague thinks out loud.
Why it matters
Long silences make a conversation feel broken. Hearing the first findings while the full answer is still being prepared tells you the work is moving and lets you react early.
- Before
- While your AI employee worked on a longer answer, live voice stayed silent until the full answer was ready, however long that took.
- Now
- Live voice may share up to three short findings while a longer answer is prepared, and stays quiet whenever you speak.
What you get
- Only in silence: it speaks up only after a few seconds of quiet and never over you; if you start talking, a finding that has not been said yet is dropped.
- Only real progress: it adds a finding only when the work has moved on since it last spoke, and it does not repeat what it already said.
- At most three: one long answer gets no more than three short findings, so the conversation never turns into a monologue.
- Good to know: these are early findings of unfinished work; the full answer that follows in the chat may refine them.
How to use it
Start live voice with the sound-wave button next to the microphone in the chat with your AI employee on your phone.
