Google's Gemini 3.8 Flash TTS Lets You Design AI Voices From Text
The Decoder · rss · 2026-09-24
Google is introducing two new text-to-speech models, Gemini 3.8 Flash TTS and Flash-Lite TTS, supporting more than 100 languages. Flash TTS can create new voices from text descriptions, and both models let users add stage directions to individual lines and generate two-voice dialogue from a single script. A voice cloning feature can build a voice profile from a 30-second sample.
