Google Meet: Real-time translated calls arrive; viral video shows how it works

The changes that artificial intelligence offers us every day never cease to amaze us. In the era of video calls, when we think we have seen it all, there is actually much more to come and innovators are constantly working to perfect this type of communication, which had its great turning point in the COVID pandemic.

This is how Google has just announced a new way for people to continue communicating through digital media and this through the video calling platform known as Meet, which now has a new feature that allows s to see the translation in real time, making conversations easier, mainly between s who do not speak the same language.

Google Meet and its voice translator

First of all, it is worth noting that the Google Meet voice translator is already available through Google Workspace and is in beta phase for s who have a Google AI Pro and Ultra subscription, but the best thing is that it will have several languages.

This tool is mainly intended for companies and offices with people who do not all speak the same language, making conversations easier, as translations arrive instantly and also come with the tone and expression of what the is saying at that moment.

What languages does Google Meet translate?

For this first version, it only has the function of English and Spanish but from the offices of Google it is known that they are working to add more languages, although it is not yet specified how many will be available on this platform in the coming weeks.

One of the things that caught the attention of s who have already used the translator is that it maintains the naturalness of the conversation, which makes an important difference with traditional translators that replace the original voice with a generic voice, while this function reproduces a translated version that limits the rhythm and expression of the person speaking at that moment.
