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 is a new generation of voice models for natural human-AI interaction, now powering ChatGPT Voice. It is built to make talking with AI feel much more like having a real conversation through a full-duplex architecture, meaning it can listen and speak at the same time. During conversations, GPT-Live can show it is paying attention with short acknowledgments like “mhmm” or “yeah,” engage in quick back-and-forth, or stay quiet when the user needs a moment to think. Instead of processing separate turns one after another, GPT-Live continuously processes input while generating output, allowing it to decide many times per second whether to speak, keep listening, pause, interrupt, or invoke a tool. For questions that require web search, deeper reasoning, or more complex work, GPT-Live can delegate to a frontier model behind the scenes and bring the result back into the conversation when it is ready, while still maintaining the flow of the voice interaction.
