According to IT House, OpenAI announced on November 10 that it will discontinue Advanced Voice Mode and Standard Voice Mode in ChatGPT on December 11, 2026, consolidating development resources toward GPT-Live. Users have until December 11 to continue using the legacy voice modes; those currently using them will automatically migrate to GPT-Live. Existing voice conversation records will be preserved and can be accessed via text or GPT-Live.
Until December 11, Advanced Voice Mode will remain available for real-time video and screen sharing features in ChatGPT, as well as for voice conversations with custom GPTs, since GPT-Live does not yet support these capabilities.
