Gemini Live Translate brings speech translation closer to conversation

Google introduced Gemini 3.5 Live Translate, describing automatic language detection and more natural translated speech. The announcement connects the capabilities to Google Translate, Meet, and tools for developers.

Context

Conversation requires preserving turn-taking, names, and corrections as well as the broad meaning of a sentence. Translation can lower participation barriers for multilingual teams, but the output needs to remain inspectable when precision matters. Confirming important agreements in writing provides another opportunity to notice misunderstandings before they shape subsequent work.
