I used to work in WebRTC back in it's earlier days and our team developed the open-source rtc.io. (https://github.com/rtc-io)

I never would have imagined that OpenAI is sending the full audio of a request to their servers. I had always assumed the audio was transcribed locally and then sent to the server.

The only reason I can think they'd want the full audio is for later model training, which, ok, fair-enough, but this can still likely be done without the limitations of WebRTC.
