   Gemini is underrated in that it produces the only prose that is somewhat bearable to read.

      Try Gemini live in a multi lingual environment. It can pick out speakers and live translate to you. Truly underrated for its capabilities.

         I actually did (was going to travel internationally), and it wasn't as useful as you'd think. I would be talking to someone, and in the background someone else would be talking, and it would translate both people.

         Only worked in a 1:1 in a quiet place. Still, can't complain for free.

            As sister comments have pointed out, I find that it's very much dependent on the phone you're using. If it can't even show me a waveform then I don't think it's going to be able to tease out any sort of speech

               I was using Google's Translate app.

                  I'm talking about Gemini Live in the Gemini App, not Google Translate.

                  Tell Gemini Live which speaker you want to engage with, and it is relatively intelligent about it.
