Gboard

Google has released Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, a speech-to-text model claiming a 4.0% word error rate in streaming mode and 2.6% in non-streaming mode, according to benchmarks from Artificial Analysis. The model already powers Gboard Rambler on Android and the Gemini app for macOS, with Chrome support coming next.

Google has updated Gboard's Writing tools on the Pixel 11 with a new 'Suggested' tab powered by Gemini Intelligence. The feature drafts personalized message suggestions using typing history and on-screen context, processed via Google's Private AI Compute.

Google DeepMind has released SL2T, a massively multilingual sign-language-to-text translation model trained on over 100,000 hours of data across 50+ sign languages. The model powers new sign-to-text dictation features in Gboard and Live Transcribe on Pixel 11, starting with American Sign Language to English.
