Haiku

Andrej Karpathy, an AI researcher at Anthropic, recommends rambling for 10 minutes in voice mode to help large language models (LLMs) extract key information. This approach allows humans to unload unstructured thoughts, which the AI then organizes. Companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are advancing voice agent models and hardware to facilitate such interactions.

Anthropic has expanded voice mode availability to its Opus and Sonnet models, previously only on Haiku. The update extends voice mode to apps like Gmail, Slack, and Canva, with users increasingly applying it to business problem-solving rather than casual queries.
