The company’s latest GPT‑Live‑1.1 update adds French, German, Hindi, Mexican Spanish, Korean and Japanese voices to ChatGPT’s speech feature, while also debuting a specialized finance assistant.

OpenAI has rolled out GPT‑Live‑1.1, expanding ChatGPT’s voice capabilities with six new language options and introducing a finance‑focused chat mode.

New multilingual voices

The update adds French, German, Hindi, Mexican Spanish, Korean and Japanese synthetic voices, allowing users to converse with ChatGPT in a broader range of languages.

Why the expansion matters

By supporting additional languages, OpenAI aims to make its conversational AI more accessible globally, catering to both personal and professional users who prefer native‑language interaction.

Finance‑focused chat mode

Alongside the voice upgrades, GPT‑Live‑1.1 introduces a dedicated finance assistant that can answer market‑related queries, explain financial concepts, and help users draft basic financial documents.

The finance mode is designed to operate with up‑to‑date market data, offering concise summaries and risk disclosures while reminding users that it does not replace professional advice.

Key features of the finance assistant

  • Real‑time stock and cryptocurrency price lookups
  • Simplified explanations of financial terms
  • Template generation for invoices and budgeting plans
  • Clear disclaimer about non‑professional advice

OpenAI says the new mode will be continuously refined as regulatory guidance evolves and as user feedback highlights additional needs.
