About
Dessa is Block's speech-to-speech artificial intelligence model for conversational voice research and applications. It takes audio input and produces audio output directly, without converting speech into text as an intermediate step. Trained from scratch on human conversation rather than text, the model supports full-duplex interaction, listening and speaking at the same time, and runs locally on a MacBook Pro with an M4 Max chip or better. It captures conversational cues such as emotion, sarcasm, laughter, pauses, and turn-taking that can be lost in text-based pipelines. Dessa is intended for AI safety researchers and developers studying voice-model behavior, privacy, and real-time interaction. It is a speech model for research and development, not a general-purpose business application or hosted voice-agent platform.

About
GPT-Live-1 is one of the two new GPT-Live voice models rolling out to ChatGPT users globally, built to make talking with AI feel much more like having a real conversation. It is powered by a full-duplex architecture, so it can listen and speak at the same time instead of waiting for one rigid turn to end before the next begins. During conversations, GPT-Live-1 can show it is paying attention with short acknowledgments, engage in quick back-and-forth, pause when the user needs a moment to think, or stay quiet when asked to listen. It continuously processes input while generating output, allowing the model to decide many times per second whether to speak, keep listening, pause, interrupt, or invoke a tool. GPT-Live-1 also separates natural interaction from deeper work: when a question requires web search, reasoning, or more agentic capabilities, it can delegate the task to a frontier model behind the scenes and bring the result back when it is ready.
