0:00 OpenAI's quietly released what I believe to be the biggest AI tool a major lab has ever put out. I think it's not only the future of AI, but the future of how we interact with computers as a whole. Now, this isn't hype. They're not paying me. None of these major labs pay me or even really talk to me at all. This is based on my experience of using ChatGPT voice over the last few days. It has completely changed how I use AI. In this video, I will show you how to do the exact same thing. I will show you why this has been an AGI moment for me, how it's completely changed the way I use my computer, and also give you a few workflows you can use immediately to 100x your productivity. I'm not even kidding. If you stick with me to the end of the video, your entire life is going to change. Now, let's lock in and get into it. Let's first talk about how big this moment is with ChatGPT voice. Let's first talk about these AGI moments.
0:56 Moments where I used the technology that completely changed how I view the world. The first was Cursor with Sonnet 3.5. This is when I really discovered vibe coding. When I saw how much AI was going to disrupt programming, this got me into AI. This inspired me to start my YouTube channel, all my content, everything like that. Next was Claude code with Opus 4.5. This was the moment where I was convinced software is basically solved. AI can handle everything software-related. Then there was Open Claw, which really opened my eyes to AI agent. It made me believe we would all have our own army of thousands of agents working for us in the near future. And now is ChatGPT voice. This has opened my eyes to ambient AI. What is ambient AI?
1:44 Ambient AI is the idea that there's going to be an AI waiting for you always, always listening, and can build things for you no matter where you are in the entire world. It completely removes the barriers and the friction between you coming up with an idea and it being created and appearing in front of you. Over the last several days of me using Chat GPT voice, I have used it everywhere. Walking around outside, going on a hike, at a cafe, around my apartment, in my bed, no matter where I am, I can just say ideas that come to me and they get built out and created on my computer. Let me show you how this works. So, up until now, the voice mode for every AI tool ever made has been dictation. What is dictation? You click a button, you say things out loud, and then they appear in your text chat, and you hit send on it. See, there's a thing I just said, you say things out loud and they appear, then you hit send, right?
2:40 It's the same thing as using the AI you've always used, you're just saying it and then the text appears on your screen. That's it, that's all dictation is. This isn't dictation. This is something completely different. This is being able to command an entire army of AI agents with just your voice. Let me show you. So, if you hit this new button in Chat GPT right here, start new voice chat, it opens up Chat GPT voice. So, I'll mute this real quick. We're now in Chat GPT voice. You're probably pretty familiar with this interface before because they had a sort of voice-like interface before where you can chat with an agent, but now this is superpowered. What makes this superpowered? Now, your Chat GPT voice agent can control any of your devices.
3:27 Any device you have that has the Chat GPT app on it, your iPad, your iPhone, your computer, your voice agent can now go on any of them and control them. On top of that, that agent can go and spin up new agents and new threads on each of those. So, basically, the power of your voice can control all your technology, get things built in an instant, and explode your productivity anywhere you are. And I'm going to demo this for you in just 1 second and show you why this is so different than anything else you've ever used. Then go into the workflow. But when you were using voice before with AI, it was basically dictation where you'd say things, it get converted to text, the AI would read it, then it would come up with text and convert it to voice for you, right? It's just a simple AI chat. Now it's an entire command center. So watch how I typically start my days. Hey chat GPT, can you give me a status update on School OS, on Personal OS, and on Henry?
4:23 Then give me a recommended next step with each. >> I'll check each project's current status and then boil it down to one practical next step for each. >> So before when using voice AIs, it would have access to just the chat. It can't see other chats you're doing, other AI agents you're using, other things going on on your entire computer and all your devices. Now because voice has access to all your devices, all the chats, everything all your different apps are doing, it can go >> School OS is deployed, but the course sync is paused after an upstream error, so no member course data is flowing.
5:00 Next is restoring a valid course response and running on one member canary before turning sync back on. Personal OS is production stable, including the video ideas release, but Google calendar is waiting on your approval at Google's security warning. That's the next move, but the founder attended three cycle production proof is still undone, so no external beta yet. The next step is to run that proof in the controlled window and record the verdict. >> So I just got a status update on the three biggest major projects I'm working on right now. It checked out all the chats, it looked at the GitHub to see all the code updates, it looked at my linear to see all the issues we have queued at the moment. It can see across everything. But here's where it can get really interesting. Not only does it have a view into everything you're doing, all your chats, all your devices, but it can spin up agents to work across all of those. So, watch this right here.
5:54 Okay, can you spin up a new thread in School OS to fix that error and get the connector working? Inside the personal OS, can you spin up a new thread that makes the Google connect that makes the Google Calendar connector work and get that approved for me? And then for Henry, can you actually build a ChatGPT site that has a plan for how we can do the entire production test and run, and then send that all to me when it's all ready and done?
6:21 >> Got it. I'm lining that up. All three can be set in motion. I'll prepare and verify the Google connection, and I'll prompt you in a visible browser for the one approval only you can complete. I'll keep each effort isolated, so nothing spills across repos. >> And now, boom, look at this. Three new chats spun up to do the work I just approved. So, you can see the Henry test plan's building a ChatGPT site for me right here. There's a new chat, Personal OS, it's fixing a calendar issue and that's running for me. And School OS started as well. So, it's spun up these three new agents to begin work for me.
6:56 So, Voice is basically acting as my chief of staff. I tell it what's on my mind and it goes and it just delegates the work to all the agents that need to get it done. Now, you take it a step further and you think about what this is like when you start using it cross-device. So, for instance, I was out yesterday, I was going for a hike for like 6 hours. I was on my iPhone, and what you can actually do when you're on your iPhone or your iPad or any other devices, you can go into remote mode, and when you're in remote mode, you can actually start up your voice chat there as well. And again, this voice chat has control over all your devices. So, I'm on the go, I have my AirPods in, and I'm able to talk through all my work without looking at a screen, without touching a keyboard, without touching a mouse, and get Agent spun up across all my devices to keep all my projects moving forward.
7:51 I not only got the same amount of work done that I typically do sitting at my computer, I actually got more work done. I'll tell you why it's so much more efficient in a second, but I got more work done walking around outside in the redwoods of Northern California than I do sitting at my desk with a keyboard and mouse. And what's amazing is it's ambient. And so you can give commands, go on mute like I just did here, and then walk around outside, sit at your computer, read a book if you want, and then when the work is done, ChatGPT voice will just wake up again and say, "Hey, by the way, we just finished this.
8:28 We're working on this now. This is complete. You can check this out." >> Personal OS calendar is built and verified locally, including the daylight saving fix. Google's approval page is open, waiting on your consent. So nothing's deployed yet. Do you want me to push it live once you approve Google's read-only calendar access? >> Yes, please. You can do that once I approve. >> Got it. I'll handle the deployment right after your approval. >> And as you can see here, it just goes.
8:51 It's just ambient. I can be doing other things. >> once you approve Google's read-only access, it'll go live and get checked. >> And this is what makes it so great. It's ambient. So while it's working, I can be doing other things. I can be reading. I can be working on other things. I can be I can be going for a walk, and then it just wakes up and says, "Hey, we just completed this work. Here's the next thing you need to do." And you can do this on the go. I was sitting by the pool yesterday as well. I had one headphone in. I'm just sitting there relaxing. Every once in a while my AI wakes up, says something to me. I go, "Okay, yes, continue. Okay, work on this." And then it just goes. I'm staying productive even when I'm walking around, sitting by the pool. I mean, you can look at me. I'm sunburnt all over cuz I was spending so much time out yesterday being productive. I'm going to go into two workflows you can use immediately in a second that I promise will change how you work with AI forever. Also, just feel free to jump around down below if you want to the different chapters. If you learn anything at all so far, make sure to leave a like down below, subscribe, and turn on notifications cuz all I do is make amazing videos about AI. Also, join the Vibe Coding Academy. I'm doing a live bootcamp on voice chat this week. I will live show you way more workflows, so make sure to join that down below. I promise it'll be the best decision you'll ever make. But before we go into these workflows, let's talk about why this has been such a massive productivity gain and and all the benefits you get from using this workflow. Number one, you can't doom scroll while conversating. If you're anything like me, whenever you send a prompt to an AI, it's so easy to kind of just pop open Twitter or look at a YouTube video and do things while the AI works. And then all of a sudden it's half an hour later and you haven't responded to the prompt since you've sent it. It is impossible to doom scroll when you're deep in a conversation, you're talking to an AI. I can't say something and then it says something back and I sit there and scroll for an hour. You're forced to be engaged, so you just get way more done and you're way more focused. You can chat about multiple projects at once. So this, again, acts as your chief of staff. This is how you want to think about ChatGPT voice, which is it's your chief of staff. It's not doing the work for you, it's delegating your work to other agents. So much like a CEO would have a chief of staff that interacts with the chief marketing officer, the chief product officer, the CTO, it's the same way where you're talking to it and it's giving work to all your other agents. So you're able to move the ball forward with multiple projects at the same time.
11:19 When you're typing and you're texting your agent, you can only text one agent at a time and give one command at a time for each project. So you're able to multitask way better. You don't need to be perfect, right? When you're typing a text prompt out, you kind of need to be perfect cuz it's going to read it very literally. But when you're talking, you can mess up, you can say ahs, you can talk about multiple things, and the AI will truly sit there and think about what it is you're saying, parse it, and figure out the right things to do. And this is maybe the biggest game changer for me, and it can be done anywhere. All of this can be done anywhere. My work doesn't need to be here at this desk. In fact, when I'm done filming this video, I'm going to go outside and go for like a 4-mi walk and just have one AirPod in talking to my agent the entire time.
12:06 When ideas come to me, I'll say them out loud. The agent will take it, assign the task, and keep it moving. >> Found the cause. Opening the second connection over wrote the first task secure callback. >> me updates and everything we talked about. >> the newest one while signed in as alex@100percentbetter.io. >> I'm literally This is the first time I've ever gotten work done while filming a video. This is pretty amazing. So, I'm going to show you three amazing workflows with this right now, and then I'm going to at the end right after this give you a bunch of huge tips you need to know so you can get the absolute most out of this feature. Let's talk about morning kickoff. I actually showed this workflow to you at the beginning of the video, which is this. You ask for a status update on all your active projects plus one step you can take to move the project forward. Then once the agent gives you the recommendation, you go, "Okay, spin up a new thread for every action you recommended." That's the key here. That's one of the biggest prompts you want to give when you're talking is, "Okay, sounds good. Spin up a thread to do that work." You never want your voice agent to actually do any of the work itself. You want it to delegate. So, everything you do, say, "Yep, okay, spin that off to a new thread." And it will start a new chat in whatever the appropriate project is, and make sure that work gets done. Next workflow is stream of conscious. This is just when you go for a walk, put in your airpod, and just start talking about whatever's on your mind. Whatever you think about the current projects you're working on, your career, your goals, your ambitions, what you're thinking about, you just brain dump it all out to your voice agent. It's just listening the entire time as you're walking around, and then you go, "Okay, based on everything I just told you, what should we build out? What can we build to get me closer to my ambitions and goals?"
13:57 Then it will give you a bunch of ideas. You go, "Okay, spin up a bunch of threads to get all that done." And then it goes, you come back to your computer at the end of your walk, and all your work is done for you, and you moved everything closer to your goals. And then the end of the day debrief, I like to do this right before I go to bed. So right before I put my phone on the charger, I go, "I'm about to go to sleep. What are three things we can do tonight to push our project forward?"
14:21 Gives you a bunch of ideas. You say, "Hey, spin up some threads to do that." And it's good to go. Here's the key thing. Here's the one connector between all of these use cases and workflows. You should be, when using ChatGBT voice, asking way more questions than commands you give. This is the beauty of having super intelligence at your fingertips. Like it's not really at your fingertips, at your mouth. That's weird. It has way more context, can think way faster, knows way more things than you, no offense. So you should be reverse prompting as much as you can. "What would you do here? How would you push things forward?" The advantage here is one, it comes up with ideas you never would have thought of, but two, it lightens your cognitive load. So if you're walking around outside, you're enjoying your day, you're talking to ChatGBT voice, you don't want to, as you're walking, have all these really deep thoughts about what is every step your agent should be doing next.
15:16 Instead, you go, "Hey, what do you think we should do next?" It gives you a bunch of ideas, then you just approve. That's so much easier on your cognitive load than having to manually think about every single thing you want it to do. So, you should be asking way more questions. As long as you're using it and saying, "Hey, what should we do next?" You're going to get good results from it. How do you improve that though?
15:37 How do you improve the recommendations it gives you? Well, that's through what I call a compass doc. So, one of the first things you want to do in ChatGPT voice when you boot it up is say, "Hey, can you build a compass doc for each one of our projects that explains to our agents what the short and long-term goals of this project are?" What ChatGPT voice will do is create a markdown file in each one of your major projects that explains what you want to do with that project in the long and short-term. Now, when you ask, "Hey, what should we do next on these projects?" your agent can actually look at your compass doc and figure out, "Okay, what are actions we can take to reach that goal." Agents are a lot more productive when they have a goal to work for, not when it's just some sort of arbitrary question, "What should we do next?" If it has a goal to work for, it can reverse engineer that and figure out all the steps it should take to get there. So, if you have it, first thing you do, create a compass doc for every project, you can now go anytime you want to your voice agent and say, "Hey, what should we do next?"
16:41 It'll make sure it creates a step that gets you closer to the short and long-term goals. So, here are my best tips I'm going to give you on this. As I said, number one, ask more questions than prompts. You shouldn't be giving as nearly as many commands as you give questions. What should you work on next? How would you handle this? What's the best way to accomplish this goal? You'll get way more better results and it'll be easier on your brain to just ask questions. Don't be afraid to rant or mess up. I find that ChatGPT voice is incredible at finding the unknown unknowns, right? The things you don't know that you don't know. So, if you go and you just rant and you say everything on your mind, Chad GPT voice can find the angles that you haven't thought of yet and find the solutions to those angles. You also don't have to worry about messing up. If you misspeak, it can figure it out. You can say, "Mhm, " It'll be able to parse through that and figure it out. They really trained this voice model really well to understand the true intentions of everything you're saying. And then most importantly, choose one device as your headquarters. I have a bunch of devices.
17:46 I have three Mac Studios, an iPhone, an iPad, a DGX Spark, a home PC. I have all these devices. What you want to do is this. You want to choose one of those devices, preferably an always-on desktop computer like a Mac Studio, a Mac mini, or a PC and have that be your headquarters. Then have every other device be a node for those headquarters. So, they control that main computer. So, I'm on my Mac Studio right now. Because this is my headquarters, when I go on my iPhone and I give it commands, it'll control and write the code on my Mac Studio. Then if I go on my iPad and give voice commands, it'll control everything on my Mac Studio. So, it keeps all your code and all your projects in one place.
18:28 This will allow you to go mobile and do things a lot easier on the go. To set all that up, you just go into your settings. Then you go to connections right here. And then on your main headquarters computer, you click control this Mac and then you add all the devices that you want to allow to control this computer. Once you do that, you can go on your iPhone, your iPad, wherever you are and you can have that device from Chad GPT voice control your main computer, which is amazing. And again, it controls your entire computer.
18:58 You can say, "Hey, build a PowerPoint. Hey, edit this doc. Open this up my computer. Load this local model." Whatever it is, you go into voice, it controls it on your computer. This has completely changed the way I work. The The I'm done editing this video and post it online, I'm going to be out in the sun in the 80° weather of Northern California walking around with my AirPod in getting work done. I think this completely changes the road map of every AI lab. I mean, this is so powerful. I think Anthropic tries to copy this as quickly as possible. I bet SpaceX comes out with a new kind of voice product like this really, really soon. I actually personally guarantee you that the Jony Ive device that's going to come out later this year is going to be some sort of microphone product that ties directly to this functionality. Maybe a little pin or something that sits around in your house that can hear you talk anytime that you can just say prompts to anywhere you are and it takes it and does the work on your computer. I would like bet anything that's what the product is that's coming out. It's just basically chat GPT voice but in hardware form somewhere around your house. I have over the last few days turned this product on to like 10 of my friends and all 10 of them were like, "Wow, this is the most amazing thing ever. I thought this was just voice dictation. This is so much bigger than that." I promise if you do the things I listed out in this video, you take it, do it right now after this video ends, I promise the way you use AI will never, ever, ever be the same. Hope this was helpful. You learn anything at all, leave a like down below. Let me know down in the replies, have you used chat GPT voice yet? What do you think? Subscribe, turn on noties.
20:33 I'll see you in the next video.
