OpenAI retires ChatGPT Standard Voice on Dec 11, pushing users to GPT-Live

A ChatGPT in-app notice reveals Standard voice is retiring on December 11, with OpenAI steering users to GPT-Live, its latest voice model built for more natural conversation on frontier intelligence.
The forced migration annoyed some users, but the poster found a workaround in a follow-up: combine the mic dictation in the message box with the read-aloud button on replies — effectively recreating the old Standard Voice flow of speaking a prompt and listening to the answer.
