Google has launched Gemini 3.5 Live Translate, a real-time audio translation model that supports over 70 languages. The model automatically detects languages and preserves the speaker's tone, pace, and pitch during translation. It also allows for continuous translation without waiting for a sentence to end. According to Google, this model is now available for developers through the Gemini Live API and Google AI Studio, as a preview for businesses in Google Meet, and for all users in the Google Translate app on Android and iOS. In Google Meet, the language support has expanded from five to more than 70 languages with over 2,000 language combinations.

Ride-hailing service Grab is reportedly testing the model for driver-passenger communication. All generated audio is tagged with an inaudible SynthID watermark. Source: thedecoder
