Enterprise and Edu subscribers will gain access from next week. Advanced Voice runs on the GPT-4o model and allows users to speak directly with the chatbot as they would another person. An OpenAI worker said he uses Advanced Voice as “a friend that’s sitting beside me, that can give me information ... you can prompt it in a way to become a different character ... have it become an interviewer to practice interviewing ... there’s a lot of fun things you can do” ... | |

Empowering your iPhone 16: These cases support the new Integrated Camera Controls | At Apple’s event, we got to see a lot of new features and details about the latest iPhone 16. One of its more prominent features has to do with the camera. More specifically, a new camera control button located on the right side of the phone enables some fairly unique interactions, designed to react to more than just a tap or click.

Quinn Nelson, better known as tech YouTuber SnazzyLabs, was quick to point out that the new app requests a bunch of permissions that it doesn't need, including things like location, usage data, identifiers, contact information, and search history. Many on social media also criticized the $50-per-year subscription fee for premium access, with one commenter quipping that MKBHD "graduated from the Apple School of Pricing.” MKBHD has already taken to social media to respond to the criticism and is promising to make some changes ... | |
