Google has refreshed the list of products and services that utilize the Google Read Aloud user agent. The updated information clarifies that this service offers an audio version of web pages by leveraging artificial intelligence to interpret their content. Importantly, it emphasizes that no page data is stored or used for AI model training.
The Google Read Aloud feature is integrated across several platforms, including Google Chrome on Android, the Google app on both Android and iOS devices, Google Go, Google Read it, and various other Google text-to-speech tools.
Previously, the description indicated that Google-Read-Aloud was the user agent supporting web page reading through text-to-speech (TTS). This service activated when users enabled TTS and accessed web pages, functioning across Google Go, Google Read it, the Google app, and other TTS-related services.
The latest update now explains that the service employs AI to understand web content and convert it into audio, with a clear note that user privacy is maintained by not retaining page data for training purposes. The expanded list highlights the specific applications where Google Read Aloud is utilized, ensuring users are aware of its integration across various Google platforms.
