GPT Live Voice briefly spoke English with a French accent, then snapped back at a kid

The author describes two strange and funny experiences with GPT Live Voice while hanging out with two kids.
- French-accent mode: after first failing to speak English with a French accent, the model apparently picked up the pattern from a French utterance and briefly produced English with a near-perfect French accent for several sentences. The transcript did not show that accent shift, which made it even weirder.
- Annoyed correction moment: when the model said a word that sounded like “blind,” the kids started jokingly mocking it in the background. The voice model interrupted and sharply corrected itself with a stressed “FFFFIND”, which the author says sounded genuinely annoyed and caught everyone off guard.
The post frames the whole thing as the funniest voice-model interaction they’ve had so far.
