Gemini Live’s multi-language skills have blown my socks off

Gemini is still far from perfect, but it’s slowly grown on me. Specifically, though, it’s the Live conversation mode that appeals to me the most because it’s everything I ever wanted from Google Assistant, and then some. I can talk to the AI, interrupt it, ask it to repeat, correct it, and ask for more details — all in a very natural and relaxed chat.

But if you’re someone like me and you’re used to speaking three languages at the same time, often in the same sentence, and your brain works like that by default, making it tough to maintain an entire conversation in one language, then you’ve probably been chomping at the bits, waiting for Gemini Live to support multiple languages. With the March Pixel Drop, the feature is now here, and Oh. My. Heavens. Is it much better than I expected, or what?
