Google announces Gemini 3.5 Transcribe for AI-powered speech-to-text

While we wait ( possibly in vain ) for Gemini 3.5 Pro to launch, Google is releasing a different model in the 3.5 branch.

The company has announced Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, an AI model designed to streamline voice input by editing out "ums" and corrections, outputting polished AI text.

This model already powers the Gboard "Rambler" feature on the Pixel 11 , but it's about to appear throughout the Google ecosystem.

According to Google, Gemini 3.5 Transcribe is much faster and more accurate than its previous voice-to-text engine, known as Chirp 3.

The new AI model should be about 70 percent faster from voice to final transcribed text, and the live-speech error rate has dropped to 5.5 percent.

That's only a little better than Chirp 3, which Google measures at 7.32 percent.

Still, it's a pain to fix typos when you're using voice input, so any improvement here is beneficial.
