Gemini’s new voice model can switch between 97 languages mid-conversation
Google announced Gemini 3.8 Live and Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking on September 15. Both support 97 languages and detect and switch language on their own mid-sentence, and the model processes video in near real time. Instead of going quiet while it fetches data, the Extended Thinking version narrates progress with verbal cues like “let me check that”. The models are rolling out across Search Live, Workspace, AI Studio and developer APIs.
