   Introduction to Real-Time Audio Models

   “Hey everyone, we're introducing new real-time audio models in the OpenAI API. In this demo, I'll show two of them: GPT Realtime Translate for live translations, and GPT Realtime 2 for voice agents that can follow instructions and take actions. Let's start with translations, 'cause that one feels so magical.”

   Live Translation Waveform Demo

   “Ce qui est très impressionnant, c'est que le modèle peut m'écouter et traduire en même temps que je parle. Il sait attendre juste le mot important, comme le verbe, pour commencer directement à traduire. Et le résultat, c'est une conversation beaucoup plus naturelle, exactement comme un dialogue entre deux personnes.”
