With news that OpenAI’s ChatGPT Voice feature is now available to all free users, you can ditch Siri as your main voice assistant on your iPhone — well, specifically on your iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, that is. Apple’s latest smartphones support the ability to configure the new Action Button, which replaces the Mute button that has been on the iPhone since its debut. Via a new Settings menu, users can turn the button to other uses beyond silencing their ringer. Depending on your personal preferences, you can associate the Action Button with any number of tasks — it can open the Camera, turn on the Flashlight, record a Voice Memo, open the Magnifier app, allow you to quickly use an Accessibility feature or run an app Shortcut. The latter is the option you’ll want to use to turn the button into a trigger for ChatGPT. Before Wednesday’s announcement that made Voice access free for all ChatGPT users, however, associating this iOS Shortcut with the Action Button would only lead to an error, as Voice access required a ChatGPT+ subscription. Now, that’s no longer an issue, which means anyone can forgo Siri in favor of ChatGPT by configuring their Action Button to launch ChatGPT’s Voice access feature. To do so, you’ll need to scroll down to the “Action Button” menu in the iOS Setting screen, then swipe over to the “Shortcut” option near the end. You’ll then tap on the blue button “Choose a Shortcut” and scroll down through the alphabetized list of supported apps to tap on “ChatGPT.” On the next screen, you simply tap the existing Shortcut “Start voice conversation” to associate this particular action with the button. Note that you’ll need to have the Shortcuts app downloaded on your iPhone, if it isn’t already. #ChatGPTVoice #ActionButtonUpgrade #SiriAlternative #VoiceAssistantRevolution #TechTransformation #iPhoneInnovation #AIAssistantUpgrade #TalkToChatGPT #VoiceTechAdvancement #SiriWho #ConvoWithChatGPT #FutureOfVoice #TechHacks #AIOnYourTerms #ActionButtonMagic #HelloChatGPT #BeyondSiri #VoiceRevolution #GPT3Assistant #SmartphoneUpgrade #VoiceAIExperience #InnovateWithChatGPT #SayItWithChatGPT #PersonalAICompanion #SiriUpgrade #VoiceControlledWorld
