- Google Meet is rolling out a speech translation feature.
- Speech translation provides near real-time translation that maintains voice, tone, and expression.
- It will be available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers first in beta.
The day is here, Google is kicking off its I/O event today. While this event is meant for developers, the company tends to make a fair number of announcements that also relate to the public. For instance, Google is now rolling out a new feature for Meet that will come first to consumers.
If you use Google Meet to talk with friends or loved ones over video, you’ll be able to take advantage of a new feature starting today. This new feature is speech translation, and it’s capable of providing low-latency, near real-time translation of spoken words. So if you speak English and you want to talk with someone who speaks Spanish, speech translation will convert those words into your preferred language.
