Gemini 3.5 Live Translate! We just shipped a real-time babel fish.

- 70+ languages, 2,000+ language pairs. - Natural translated speech, works in noisy environments. - Stays in sync with the speaker, no lag, no awkward pauses. - Auto-detects the language being spoken.

Available today in Google Translate (Android & iOS), the Gemini API (Public Preview), and Google Meet (Private Preview).

I genuinely think this is the beginning of the end of language barriers. Anyone can now speak and understand anyone.

Speech translation has been one of the longest-running ML efforts at Google, and we’ve come a long way. Gemini 3.5 Live Translate is our latest speech-to-speech model, supporting 70+ languages. It enables more natural conversations across languages in everyday products and apps.

Here’s an example of how partners at @InsideGrab are helping connect travelers with drivers. 🚗

Rolling out in Google Translate and via the Live API in @GoogleAIStudio.

Fascinating. Google just released Gemini 3.5 Live Translate.

A live speech-to-speech translation model that starts speaking in another language while the original speaker is still talking.

Older translation systems often wait for a full sentence, because early words can be misleading until later words reveal tense, intent, or context.

Gemini 3.5 instead runs streaming translation, where the model listens, interprets partial meaning, predicts what can safely be translated, and keeps updating as new speech arrives.

supports 70+ languages, stays only a few seconds behind the speaker, and can preserve pacing, pitch, and intonation across longer sessions.

Rolling out to Gemini Live API, businesses through Google Meet preview, and regular users through Google Translate on Android and iOS.

3.5 Live Translate can convert speech into over 70 languages and processes it as it’s streamed - while keeping tone, pace and pitch intact - allowing for more natural conversations.

Gemini 3.5 Live translate: Stream in speech, and stream out the spoken translation.

It also magically works with multiple speakers. It does not work with Klingon (I tried).

Try it on AI Studio: https://aistudio.google.com/live?model=gemini-3.5-live-translate-preview

@OfficialLoganK @GeminiApp @GoogleAIStudio we need Gemini 3.5 flash live speech to text API. Coz the Google Speech to text does not work well for strong accents. Gemini works extremely well with context and Google speech to text only works with local context.

@OfficialLoganK Latency is everything in real-time translation. Sub-200ms feels natural, above that conversations get awkward. 70 languages is impressive. But are all 70 hitting that latency target or is it tiered?

@GoogleDeepMind "cross-language communication" fast is the part that gets me. tried live translate on gemini vs piping audio through gpt and the lag difference was night and day, gemini barely paused between languages.

@_philschmid No Spanish from Spain, just latin american Spanish

I liked Google because you usually included it, it's a shame you didn't this time because the model does seem to be good

@0x0a99 @GoogleAIStudio C’mon, dude. Claude Fable doesn’t translate audio in real time.
