OpenAI says 250 million people use ChatGPT’s voice or dictation features each week, roughly one in five among the 1.2 billion weekly users recorded at the end of September 2026. The figure, up from more than 150 million voice users reported on July 8, 2026, followed the launch of GPT-Live, which made full-duplex conversation the default for ChatGPT Voice. OpenAI cites hands-free use cases such as driving and language learning, while dictation lets users enter text by speaking it. The figures come solely from the company and have not been independently verified; according to the report’s projections, monthly users could exceed 1.3 billion in October 2026.
