The story

Google has introduced Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, a speech model designed for real-time and prerecorded audio applications.

Reliable transcription supports meetings, media, accessibility and customer service, but accuracy can vary with accents, background noise and specialized vocabulary. Latency and privacy are equally important in live settings.

Developers will look for transparent evaluations across languages and noisy environments, plus controls for data retention, speaker identification and sensitive recordings.
