I'm in europe and was able to accesss the feature with a VPN.

Surprising that there isn't a 'hey siri' for chatgpt yet. Obviously, that would make this sort of feature infinitely more useful. This is what monopoly gatekeeping looks like.

The limitations in this feature show the problems with both EU proactive regulation and US underregulation.

Bad regulation has become the biggest issue standing in the way of useful software for humans.

Sort of a middleman approach and certainly not perfect, but you can invoke ChatGPT with Siri using Shortcuts.

Interesting, do you know whether this can invoke Voice Mode?

I switched to Claude, but when I was still using ChatGPT, I had a shortcut set up to initiate Voice mode directly, yes. I had set it up for the Action button, but you could surely trigger this with Siri too. You'll likely have to unlock with faceID first though.

Nevermind, I deleted and re-installed the app on iOS while on VPN and now it works!

I dunno, it's a single button press on my phone to access it. That seems plenty fine to me.
