ChatGPT Voice with tools and MCP impresses: interruptible, pulls local Mac files

Viticci (MacStories) spent hours testing ChatGPT Voice mode with plugins and calls it "remarkably good," likely to fundamentally change his ChatGPT usage. It works with any tool he tested, including a custom MCP server giving ChatGPT access to his Mac — successfully pulling a desktop photo and Reminders. Voice mode previews images inline, and live bidirectional voice lets him interrupt mid-task ("actually it's in Slack") and pivot on the fly. Insiders like Athyuttamre agree OpenAI "pretty much nailed this."
