Google announces Gemini 3.5 Live Translate for instant voice-to-voice translation
Ars Technica AIyesterdayNew ToolGoogle has announced Gemini 3.5 Live Translate, a real-time voice-to-voice translation system that preserves the original speaker's tone, pacing, and pitch rather than producing flat synthetic output. The system embeds Google's SynthID watermarks into translated audio, enabling AI content provenance detection without affecting audio quality. This extends Google's Gemini Live multimodal API capabilities into cross-language communication scenarios such as meetings, live streams, and customer service.
