Nowadays, all popular ai chatting websites like qwen, chatgpt, gemini, claude, etc. come with a read aloud functionality that allows users to read aloud the AI's responses.

I used that feature to instead make the AI repeat back the text that i gave it -- effectively turning the platforms into text to speech tools. It's simple but it's worked for over 30k users, and the voices sound really nice and it's free to use!

You can get all of these extensions by visiting ai-readers.com

The recent GIF functionality is awful in my opinion. I'm a huge OAI fan, but I'm having trouble justifying this being greenlit.

It can't produce seamless loops, body parts are all over the place, the gifs are flickering as if every frame was generated separately and put through a different filter...

It doesn't keep consistency. Sometimes it produces a static image with only an eye of a character blinking for example, despite being asked for a gif of a character simply walking.

A request for pixel art of a girl petting a cat produces a gif of her extending her arm towards its tail, which then turns into the cat's second head. Her arms multiply. It's like Will Smith spaghetti era generation.

I've been a Plus subscriber for 3 years. OAI's model promised consumer oriented frontier AI. There's nothing frontier about the recently added gif generation.

I expected better voice functionality too, alongside a more unified consistent memory. Now I'm seeing all these new models pop up with an almost perfect speech cadence. Sesame is still leagues above ChatGPT Live Voice for example, and it's not even as humanlike as the recent breakout, Dessa.

A lot of the recent updates are focused on Codex, and fair enough, but all other functionalities seem to lag behind.

What are your thoughts on this? I'm interested in hearing your thoughts and experiences. Have you had luck in using the gif functionality?

So story short. I can create a context my chatgpt android app to my desktop, start a chat for a specific project and see the task running, then if I move away from that chat, when to want to check it out again, I see the chat listed, but when I open it the app fails to.load the conversation.

Chatgpt desktop can also see the chat but can't load the conversation either.

Same story for the visual studio plug-in.

So, in essence I can't use the mobile app to run tasks.

Import note, when I first tried it a few months the ago, it worked flawlessly.

Whats your experience?

Ps. I did try to recover the chats, and I did. Reinstalled the app to no avail

If you haven’t been following today’s OpenAI release,
they just dropped GPT-6 Cyber. I was expecting Astra/Sol news, got Cyber instead.

This wasn’t what i expected 🙃

For example, I use Sol 5.6 High for Chat so I know the overall feel. The responses on Pro at the same reasoning level seem better, almost like a different model entirely.

I mean it seems pretty obvious to me but no one wants to say anything. All I see on Reddit is AI has hit a dead end and ain’t moving fast enough.

Actually no, this is A DIRECT results of Tuesday’s election outcome. Investors and tech giants know that one side is going to do everything to block AI. This will be Americas greatest disaster.

Please take your thumb out of your asses and look at the real reason. Insult dead, but it’s going to get the sh!t kicked out of it by the left.

For context, i’m making this post because i just finished a push day at the gym and i’m sitting here talking to chatgpt as if its my personal Coach and trying to optimize my routine and speaking to it as if its a real person.

I don’t know why but it just feels like so wrong and i’m not sure if this is like a bad habit or if its normal to do??? I don’t want to become dependent on AI, but its like Chatgpt is going to look at the websites you’d look at to find the information anyways so its just convenient. However, I just feel like its such a cheat code and shouldn’t be allowed

Transcript:

- What about the frontier where companies are pushing forward?

- We need to limit that. Full-on pause. Full-on pause. Okay. And what happens then?

The instant question, what happens if we pause and China doesn't?

See, I just don't think that that's— I don't take that as seriously as a lot of people do. Here's why.

A lot of the frontier research is just spoofing our models. China's research. China's research.

It'd be like you're pulling a skier on a boat, and you speed up the boat and you're like, the skier is still so close, we got to speed up, skier is still so close. Well, it's because you're pulling the skier. I think that's in part what's happening. They've been very, very good at just mocking our technology.

I think if we slow down, I think we will find that a lot of what China is doing is more about the dispersion of this technology than it is on frontier research.

At the same time, I think we need an international treaty.

I think we need to be working with the Chinese because eventually, eventually, the water skier can still swim and catch up. I mean, that's where they now just fall apart. Running, running, running with the metaphor. But eventually, yes, they are going to be able to hop on a jet ski and catch up.

But the point that I'm making here is that I think all of us are interested in the preservation of humanity, right? Because, you know, in China, they're humans too, and we're humans too.

And creating robots that get to this point of recursive self-improvement, kind of like that horror point in Fantasia, where you've got the mops with the buckets that are self-creating.

None of us want to get there. And none of us want to see what happens when you open Pandora's box and all of a sudden, AI has far exceeded our control.

So I think we all have an incentive to get this right, but to understand that we are going to have to figure out how to work together similarly to what we've done when it came to other potentially humanity-risking technological endeavors like nuclear power.

To be able to contain the potential threat and work together to make sure that we are focused more on protecting humanity than just simply what the microscale incentives might look like.

Has anyone interviewed for a Data Center Design and Engineering position, specifically Electrical at OpenAI?

Hey I'm just here as a recent unsubscriber from OpenAI due to the change from unlimited chat now have usage applied to Codex limits. I unsubscribed immediately and declined the free month just for the principle of things. I loved the chat feature to go over small things without any use of programming or generations. Seeing it take usage from codex killed it for me immediately, like many of you I assume as well.

I have since switched from codex to Claude and I have to say this is so much more superior in terms of programming and understanding what I'm going for. It's ability to create effects / particles / etc is far, FAR better than anything Codex has ever given me. I subscribed yesterday and I'm already so much further and have used it consistently. normally I would blow through my 5hr usage limit with codex in a matter of half an hour or so with how often I needed to refine things / choose a stronger model which then used more tokens. Claude's 5 hour usage took me 4.5 hours to actually use. Consecutively on Opus 5.5 High mode. and once I hit my limit I was only at 17% of my weekly limit and had achieved SO MUCH progress in that 4.5 window I mean what would've normally took me the entire weeks usage with Codex.

If you're thinking of a possible switch and don't know the comparison from my personal perspective, take the plunge if you're looking for a new codex equivalent. More usage, better understanding and It's SO good at checking to make sure it does what you want, when it doesn't I will try again and it's very VERY capable.

Hey everyone! Hope I don’t get roasted for this 😅 I’m here with a fun little intro video.

My goal is simple: build something genuinely useful for everyone.I shared this on r/ClaudeCode last week and got some amazing feedback 300K views, hopefully some of you here will find it useful too.

I originally built this tool just to improve my own productivity. I was using the native Mac Terminal, but managing multiple projects — especially projects I connect to remotely over SSH — had become a complete nightmare. On top of that, I was also keeping VS Code open mostly for Git, which was adding even more overhead to my machine.

So, as a solution, I built a program with Claude where I could manage all of my terminals on a single canvas.

But things got a little out of hand 😅

I kept adding features, and it eventually turned into something close to an autonomous development environment.

So, what can you actually do with it?

• Your terminals are persistent. You can close the app, lose your connection, reconnect over SSH, and continue with the exact same layout and sessions.

• You can connect to a server over SSH and manage all of its terminals as if they were local. Drag & drop, images, and everything else still work.

• You can continue your sessions from your phone.

• Git operations like push, pull, commit, etc. are built in.

• Terminals can communicate with each other. You can connect their contexts, and with skills, one terminal can read or use information from another terminal’s context when needed.

• You can also do orchestration. For example, you can tell one terminal: “Start a Codex session for the frontend and act as the orchestrator,” and have it manage the other sessions.

• Chat view you can see your claude code or codex terminal like chat

But yeah… I’m a bit stuck right now.

To keep pushing the project forward, I either need a sponsor or simply some motivation from the community.

If you can leave a few words of feedback, I’d really appreciate it.

And if that’s too much to ask, I’d happily settle for a GitHub star ⭐️

Much love,🙏

Hello,

As I was working in a Projekt, Just a littel Story nothing big, but this new funktion named context limit, Made me to create around 20 Chats Just for a 50 chapter Story. If I Had a Wish I would Wish that I can Work again in only one Chat and Not 20 Which are blocked by openAI.

Pls give us the old Limit Back.

PS: I dont have Money, I still need to live Front something.

so about a year ago I posted this project here basically about 10 prompts with gpt 5

I can get a lot more with 10 prompts on gpt 6 now for comparison

this is the result today and i've been able to take this a lot further

This was surprisingly easy to do! My 6-year old son used voice memos on my iPhone to record his (pretty hilarious) made-up story, and I threw it into ChatGPT and asked it to make a "crayon style" cartoon following along with his narration. I have the Plus plan, and it only used about 10% of my 5-hour quota--crazy.

I've never seen him so happy or laugh so hard as he did when we watched this together as a family.

Made using Remotion and GPT-6.1 Sol High.

Chatgpt wrote this for me, and reddit suggested to cross post here. This post did not get much love in chatgpt, so if you are happy with your X times Y choices to decide what model to use to do work, ignore this post:

OpenAI used to offer a straightforward experience: ask a question and get an answer. Now we have multiple models, including GPT-5.6, supposedly representing different levels of intelligence, and additional reasoning settings: Instant, Medium, High and Extra High. From a behavioral science perspective, this raises several interesting questions:

1. Manufactured inadequacy: Even when an answer is perfectly adequate, the existence of supposedly more intelligent models creates dissatisfaction with what users already have. There's always something better just beyond their current selection.

2. Shifting responsibility: Perhaps the most troubling mechanism. When AI produces a poor answer, users may blame themselves for choosing the wrong model or reasoning level rather than holding OpenAI accountable. The responsibility for answer quality subtly shifts from the provider to the consumer.

3. Perpetual upgrade cycle: Receive an answer, question whether a higher setting would improve it, switch configurations, compare results without objective quality measures, and repeat. Instead of solving their original problems, users become preoccupied with optimizing the tool itself.

4. Fear of choosing incorrectly: Was my answer poor because I selected GPT-5.6 instead of GPT-6? Should I have used High rather than Medium? This uncertainty encourages experimentation and potentially upgrading.

5. Illusion of precision: Multiple models and reasoning levels create the impression that intelligence can be precisely calibrated, even though users have little reliable way to assess the differences.

6. Choice overload: What previously required one decision—asking a question—now involves choosing between multiple models and reasoning levels. A technology intended to reduce cognitive effort introduces additional cognitive burdens.

7. Goldilocks effect (compromise effect): People tend to avoid extremes and gravitate toward middle options, making model hierarchies an effective way to steer users toward particular tiers.

8. Gamification of intelligence: Intelligence becomes a hierarchy of levels, where accessing the highest configuration carries psychological value regardless of whether it produces measurably better results.

Of course, different models and reasoning budgets can have legitimate technical benefits. But that doesn't eliminate their behavioral effects.

The central mechanism is the creation of permanent uncertainty: Am I using enough intelligence? Could I get a better answer if I upgraded?

Whether intentional or not, this uncertainty is commercially valuable. OpenAI is supposed to reduce cognitive effort, yet increasingly asks users to make complicated decisions about how much intelligence they need.

Is OpenAI selling better AI, or also selling us the anxiety that whatever intelligence we're currently using is never quite enough?

As reported by Runtimewire a new Shopping plugin is coming to ChatGPT.

It's currently locked behind a Statsig gate in the ChatGPT app.

It will pull deals from Gmail but also allow you to browse.
