Here is how you can use the GPT-4o API to handle voice commands in a Python application:
Capturing Audio Input
Use a library like `speech_recognition` in Python to capture audio input from the user's microphone. For example:
python
import speech_recognition as sr
r = sr.Recognizer()
with sr.Microphone() as source:
print("Listening...")
audio = r.listen(source)
Transcribing Audio to Text
Send the captured audio to the GPT-4o API using `openai.Audio.transcribe()` to transcribe it to text. GPT-4o can process the audio directly without requiring a separate speech recognition model[1][4]:
python
transcription = openai.Audio.transcribe(
model="whisper-1",
file=audio,
)
The transcribed text will be available in `transcription.text`.
Generating a Response
Use `openai.Completion.create()` with the GPT-4o model to generate a response to the voice command. Pass the transcribed text as the prompt[1][2]:
python
response = openai.Completion.create(
model="gpt-4o",
prompt=f"User: {transcription.text}\nAssistant: ",
max_tokens=100,
n=1,
stop=None,
temperature=0.7,
)
The generated response will be in `response.choices.text`.
Responding with Text-to-Speech
Convert the text response to speech using a library like `pyttsx3` or the OpenAI TTS API to speak the response back to the user[2][3].
Handling Context
Optionally, the voice command could also trigger other actions like taking a screenshot, capturing from the webcam, or extracting clipboard text. These visual inputs can be sent to GPT-4o along with the voice command to provide a more contextual response[3].
By leveraging GPT-4o's direct audio processing capabilities, you can create Python applications that understand voice commands, process them in context, and respond back to the user in a conversational manner. This enables a more natural and intuitive user experience compared to traditional text-based interactions.
