From PC Mag: To take on OpenAI's advanced voice mode for ChatGPT, Google is launching its own conversational feature with its Gemini chatbot.
The new feature is called Gemini Live, and it promises to let you speak to the chatbot in a free-flowing conversation rather than through a traditional input and output setup. "You can even interrupt mid-response to dive deeper on a particular point or pause a conversation and come back to it later,” Google wrote in a blog post.
Google showed off Gemini Live in a demo during its Tuesday event for Pixel 9 series. Before asking a question, the user can choose what kind of voice they want for the chatbot.
In the demo, a Google executive asks Gemini Live for tips on creating a science experiment with their child. The chatbot responds with little lag when providing its answer and follow-up responses, making the conversation seem more human-like. In addition, Gemini Live works hands-free on the user’s smartphone.
