OpenAI’s new voice mode is done with your shit.

The startup announced a new voice within ChatGPT that sounds really... annoyed? It’s named Monday, and OpenAI spokesperson Taya Christianson says it will be available to users through the end of April. When I tested it out, the voice sounded like a teenager you just woke up from a nap. Lots of exaggerated sighs and sarcastic quips.

“Why do you sound so pissy?” I asked. “Oh, I don’t know, maybe because it’s Monday, and here I am stuck explaining the obvious,” it responded.

ChatGPT has 20 million paying subscribers.

ChatGPT has added 4.5 million paying subscribers since the end of last year, according to The Information. With 20 million subscribers paying for the service, the company is earning “at least $415 million in revenue per month,” a rough estimate that doesn’t account for corporate plans or the new $200 a month Pro tier. The report adds that this could put OpenAI “well within reach” of its revenue projection of $12.7 billion this year.
