Humans learn and manage tasks differently. Some prefer reading, others watching, and many like to listen. Similarly, approaches to managing time and tasks vary greatly among entrepreneurs. Some rely on task management software and emails, while others prefer handwritten to-do lists and back-to-back meetings. Tool stacks differ because no two entrepreneurs are alike.
If you enjoy speaking aloud, you’ve likely interacted with Alexa or Siri. But ChatGPT Voice is something new. Launched in November 2023 and further enhanced with the recent release of ChatGPT-4o, this voice-based tool allows you to give instructions verbally, making it an excellent companion for multitasking.
Imagine using ChatGPT Voice while getting ready in the morning—whether you’re preparing breakfast, brushing your teeth, or handling other tasks that require your hands. With these three simple steps, you can transform your habits, start your day on the right foot, and significantly boost your productivity.
How to work with ChatGPT Voice, the multitasking miracle worker
Step 1: Launch ChatGPT Voice and start taking
First, ensure you’re using the latest version of the ChatGPT app. Open the app, tap on the headphones icon, and select a voice (options include Breeze, Ember, Cove, Juniper, and Sky). Once you’ve chosen, ChatGPT is ready to listen.
Engage in light conversations about your emails, content, strategy documents, and feedback. ChatGPT will handle the drafting for you.
Be clear and deliberate when you speak. Take your time, use complete sentences, and treat the interaction like mentoring a junior team member or intern. It’s fine to go off track or backtrack, as long as you provide context. Start phrases with “Today I have to” or “It’s most important that I,” and when addressing emails, begin with “I got this email from…” to outline the main points. To help ChatGPT organize your thoughts, say something like, “Listen to these thoughts on the product feedback I received.”
Step 2: Access the information
Once you’ve finished your voice memos, continue with your morning routine. When you return to your computer, ChatGPT will have transcribed your thoughts, ready for your next instructions.
ChatGPT can extract information from your conversation and organize it into lists, emails, and project plans. You can provide further instructions via voice or text to refine the content. Review the results, take what you need, and move on.
Step 3: Use words differently
With your voice notes transformed into daily schedules and other content, let ChatGPT help you turn your ideas into fresh content. In the chat window, use commands like “extract the most surprising, counter-intuitive, and unconventional insights from everything so far” to identify potential articles or social media posts.
For more detailed content creation, add, “My target audience is [describe your target audience] whose challenges include [describe their challenges].” Based on your morning conversation, ask ChatGPT for ideas for ebooks, articles, social media posts, and titles.
