## AI overview

OpenAI describes GPT-Live, a full-duplex voice system designed for continuous, natural conversation. Its low-latency architecture streams audio in both directions, separates asynchronous delegation from the core voice path, and coordinates stateful inference, dynamic context management, and protocol-level optimization.

## Source excerpt

GPT-Live enables continuous voice interaction with AI, using a turnless speech model and low-latency architecture for faster, more natural conversations.
