Newest publishedOpenAI GPT-Live Outbound SIP Calling Hits GA for All Orgs
On 2026-11-05 ~06:01 Asia/Shanghai, OpenAI’s Justin Uberti (@juberti) said the GPT-Live outbound telephony API hit GA: Live voice agents dial via any SIP trunk (e.g. Telnyx/Twilio), with HD Voice and bidirectional DTMF (Uberti’s wording). Greg Brockman (@gdb) quoted that at ~12:52. Docs: outbound SIP is for all organizations through the Live API, not the Realtime API call-creation endpoint. Ringing ≤3 minutes; connected ≤2 hours—not set in create. OpenAI’s docs and staff posts are self-reported; DigIntoAI hasn’t tested outbound calling.
Conductor Joins Meta With Cloud Wind-Down Nov 13–20 and Local Support to Early 2027
On November 4, 2026, Conductor (conductor.build) said Conductor is joining Meta (Charlie; changelog 0.93.0). New sign-ups stop that day. Conductor Cloud goes read-only on November 13 (active subscribers get a refund) and shuts down on November 20, when Cloud user-data deletion begins. Local Conductor keeps new models and critical fixes until early 2027. A newer product is only a fuzzy “early next year” promise. DigIntoAI has not tested Transfer to local, Export data, or refunds; Meta’s company blog was not separately confirmed here.
