Google Gemini can now read your Docs aloud

Google Docs will now let you generate an audio version of your documents using AI. In a post announcing the rollout, Google says you can customize Gemini’s AI audio output with different voices and playback speeds.

This feature isn’t just for a document’s creator, as Google says readers can access a shared document’s AI-generated audio by selecting the Tool dropdown menu and selecting Audio > Listen to this tab. Authors can also add a customizable audio button directly in a document by choosing Insert > Audio, which readers can click to start listening.

Google announced plans to let you turn your documents into AI podcasts in April, but this feature seems a lot handier if you just want to listen to what you’ve written. You can only generate audio versions of documents in English and on desktop devices for now.

Google is rolling out audio in Docs to Workspace users with business, enterprise, or education plans, as well as users who have AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions.
