There's a tiktok of Sam Altman reacting to a viral clip of someone using Voice to time themselves on a mile run (it hilariously failed).

Sam's reaction was "Yea, it doesn't have access to tools like a timer. It's a known issue. Should be coming in about a year"

Edit: here's the clip: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Py2YgJe8fqQ

One of the videos on the announcement page shows someone making coffee and it _appears_ that the agent counts 30 seconds in real-time. Curious to know how they made it do that without tool support.

Did it take 30 seconds?

Faking it is one way

A year? Is it that hard, or do they not see the value?

A timer tool with a callback feature would take like a couple of hours to implement, a model which has a native internal ability to know the time would take ages to make

I don't think it needs an 'internal clock'. It needs two things. (1) the timer tool, (2) to know not to lie about having a tool or using a tool. I think (2) is the hard thing.

It does now with this new model.
