For me the last remaining killer feature of ChatGPT is the quality of the voice chat. Do any of the competitors have something like that?

Not for my use case. I can open it up, and in restored classical Latin pronunciation say "Hi, my name is X, how are you?" and it will respond (also in Latin) "Hello X, I am well, thanks for asking. I hope you are doing great." Its pronunciation is not great, but intelligible. In the written transcript, it butchers what I say, but its responses look good, although sans macrons indicating phonemic vowel length.

Gemini responds in what I think is Spanish, or perhaps Portuguese.

However I can hand an 8 minute long 48k mono mp3 of a nuanced Latin speaker who nasalizes his vowels, and makes regular use of elision to Gemini-3-pro-preview and it will produce an accurate macronized Latin transcription. It's pretty mind blowing.

I have to ask: What usecase requires you to speak Latin to the llm?

I'm a Latin language learner, and part of developing fluency is practicing extemporaneous speech. My dog is a patient listener, but a poor interlocutor. There are Latin language Discord servers where you can speak to people, but I don't quite have the confidence to do that yet. I assume the machine doesn't judge my shitty grammar.

Loquerisne Latine?

Non vere, sed intelligere possum.

Ita, mihi est canis qui idipsum facit!

(translated from the Gàidhlig)

Certe loqui conor, sed saepenumero prave dico; canis meus non turbatus est ;)

You haven't heard? Latin is the next big wave, after blockchain and AI.

You laugh, but the global language learning market in 2025 is expected to exceed USD $100 billion, and LLMs IMHO are poised to disrupt the shit out of it.

Well sure I can see that happening ... but I can't see latin making a huge comeback unfortunately.
