Speak faster, but speak clearly.
Typing is slow. Speaking is fast. But how you speak to AI matters.
There are two ways to use voice with ChatGPT:
-
-
Voice-to-Text – Tap the microphone in the input bar. Great for quick thoughts and idea capture.
-
Voice Mode – Available in the ChatGPT mobile app (or desktop with a shortcut). This gives you a spoken conversation — it listens and talks back.
-
When to use each:
-
-
Use Voice-to-Text when you want to narrate ideas quickly and still edit before submitting.
-
Use Voice Mode when you want a live, back-and-forth experience — like thinking out loud with a coach.
-
Pro tip: You don’t need to say “comma” or “full stop” when using Voice-to-Text. ChatGPT auto-punctuates surprisingly well.
