Nada is about to make good on its April 18 promise to add ChatGPT to your headset, and it did so at a good clip, because it's coming ahead of the expected June launch. May 21 is the date an update is expected to arrive. And in doing so, Carl Pei's company officially won the ChatGPT headset integration race.
But that's not even the most important news. It's not just Nothing's newest or flagship progeny that's getting the update: all Nothing-branded headphones will receive the prolific AI chatbot. Own a set of Nothing Ear, Nothing Ear (a), the inaugural July 2021 Nothing Ear (1), the October 2022 follow-up Nothing Ear (Stick), the March 2023 Nothing Ear (2), or the Nothing Budget CMF from Nothing Buds. , including CMF Neckband Pro and CMF Buds Pro? You're ready to get ChatGPT, as long as you have a Nothing smartphone (Nothing Phone 1, Nothing Phone 2, or Nothing Phone 2a) and update the Nothing X app on or after the big day.
ChatGPT on the go. In addition to Ear and Ear (a), our ChatGPT integration will come to all of our audio products: Ear (1), Ear (stick), Ear (2), CMF Buds, CMF Neckband Pro and CMF Buds Pro. Update your Nothing app X on May 21. pic.twitter.com/KwdzsJSHbpMay 13, 2024
On May 21, Nothing tells us that users will be able to pinch-to-talk in ChatGPT directly from Nothing audio products paired with Nothing phones, once they've updated the Nothing X app to activate the feature. If this can be connected to ChatGPT-4o's new amazingly realistic voice responses, it could be an amazing feature.
I have to hand it over to Nothing, that's really something.
At a time when audio heavyweights seem to be killing time, Spotify Supremium has been leaked on multiple occasions but has yet to be released; Apple's long-rumored HomePod with display is still a rumor; The Siri update is much needed, but it won't arrive until iOS 18 in September; It's impressive to see a newcomer not only deliver on his promise, but also improve on the deadline.
The affordable Nothing Ear (a), announced alongside the flagship Nothing Ear on April 18, quickly made it straight to our pick of the best headphones for sound, features, resistance, noise cancellation and comfort – and that was before An improvement in Transparency Mode and ChatGPT joined the party.
Another nice touch is that Nothing hasn't locked this flagship (and as of this writing, only) feature behind an exclusive paywall for flagship products, because even the budget CMF by Nothing headphones are getting the popular AI assistant. , as long as you. We also paid for a Nothing smartphone.
It is worth noting that not have to use ChatGPT as your default voice assistant on your Nothing device using your Nothing headphones if you don't want to. That said, I think it will be an important feature to play with, especially when my own experience with in-ear vocal assistance is mediocre at best. Amazon's Echo Buds line, for example, has been offering hands-free Alexa for years, but I find the earbuds uncomfortable and unsafe in my ears, and while the sound quality is acceptable for the price, it's easily surpassed for sonic qualities. superiors of the Ear of Nothing (a).
