The speech to text transcription tool can be very useful for users who are in a very noisy environment or simply cannot hear the audio at the moment. What this function will do is transcribe in real time what can be heard in the message as long as we can respond if it is very urgent.

Google with its ‘Pixel’ devices has already been presenting this function to its users for two years with the release of the first Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. This tool not only allows you to transcribe audio messages to text, it can also transcribe entire calls in time with a very high level of accuracy.
This is thanks to the inclusion of artificial intelligence in its operating system which provides a multitude of tools which can be very useful for the user.
Google and artificial intelligence
Google created an ‘alliance’ with artificial intelligence in order to offer its users an operating system that they never want to part with. The Pixel device, in addition to allowing speech to text transcription, also enables real-time translation with voice output between two languages. This can be used for travelers who do not speak the language to be able to communicate with the other person.
Photos or images are sometimes accompanied by objects or people that we do not want to appear in the image. Google allows from its photo application to be able to delete the element that we want without spoiling it.
Did you know that Google Photos now has a magic eraser that allows you to remove people or objects from your photos? I show you how: 👇🏻 pic.twitter.com/bAZKu6a71K
