OpenAI is planning to roll out a set of 'miracle' tools which are likely to make working with artificial intelligence voice assistants easier in an effort to stay ahead in the AI game.

In its latest update, the ChatGPT maker is introducing a range of new tools — rolling out immediately for testing — that speed up the process of developing applications based on the tech firm's AI technology.

The latest tool by Sam Altman's AI firm will enable developers to create AI voice applications using a single set of instructions, Reuters reported.

Previously, developers were required to transcribe audio, run a generated-text model to come up with an answer to the query and then use a separate text-to-speech model while developing an AI voice assistant.

However, the new tool speeds up the process by eliminating all these steps.

The new tool comes when competition in the AI race is heating up as technology giants, including Google-parent Alphabet, have also integrated AI models capable of crunching different forms of information such as video, audio and text across their businesses.

Meanwhile, the Microsoft-backed AI startup also introduced a fine-tuning tool for models after training that would allow developers to improve the responses generated by models using images and text.

This fine-tuning process can include feedback from humans who feed the model examples of good and bad answers based on its responses.

Using images to fine-tune models would give them stronger image understanding capabilities, enabling applications such as enhanced visual search and improved object detection for autonomous vehicles, OpenAI said.

The startup also unveiled a tool that would allow smaller models to learn from larger ones, along with "Prompt Caching" that cuts some development costs by half by reusing pieces of the text AI has previously processed.
