How to Change Gemini Voice in Simple Steps!

As soon as someone says “Google,” the first that comes to mind is the search engine. The progressive company that Google is, it has wasted no time in going a step ahead of its main offering, and introduced the Gemini app: “a new kind of AI assistant, built from the ground up with advanced language understanding and reasoning.” 

And if you think Gemini is the same as Google Assistant, let us assure you that it isn’t. For starters, the Gemini app is capable of understanding natural language. 

Also, the Gemini app can answer many more questions than Google Assistant. However, there’s a catch! It might not always give you accurate answers. It does come with a double-check feature though to verify important facts. 

As an AI-powered voice assistant, the Gemini app boasts exceptional audio processing abilities. It can also perform mathematical reasoning and summarization tasks in multiple languages. 

If you enjoy using Gemini’s voice assistant functionality, you might want to consider changing its voice every once in a while. After all, listening to the same voice day after day can get a tad boring. Fortunately, you don’t need to put up with that.

In this article, we will look at how you can change Gemini's voice on your Android phone and smart speakers. Let's get started.

How Does the Gemini Voice Sound So Human?

When Google decided to go beyond Google Assistant and launch Gemini, they were looking to create a generative artificial intelligence chatbot that could rival OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

The search engine giant upgraded the Gemini app with tools that allow the AI powered chatbot to take action on the behalf of the user. Called Gemini Live, the conversational chatbot now allows users to conduct in-depth conversations using their voice, like a mobile assistant. You can even interrupt Gemini when it starts talking so that the Gemini Live UI can adapt to the user's speech patterns.

So what’s the secret behind the incredibly human-like Gemini voice? It uses Google's AI speech models to understand what the user is saying and tries to answer naturally. Gemini voice is based on large and sophisticated Google's AI models that are designed to facilitate conversational chats. This enables a lifelike back-and-forth when the person speaks to Gemini using voice commands. 

For now, you can choose from among 10 voice options: Vega, Ursa, Pegasus, Nova, Eclipse, Lyra, Orbit, Dipper, Capella, and Orion. When it comes to language support, you can pick from various options such as English, French, Arabic, Hindi, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and more.
