In case you’re like me and missed the rollout of live captioning within Google Slides, here is a link to the announcement on the Google blog from October of 2018. h/t to Cara North who shared her observations on LinkedIn.
This is an amazing enhancement and one I’ll be testing out in a few weeks in a session on accessibility, if not before during a Zoom webinar. However, as others in the thread mentioned, it doesn’t produce a .srt or caption file for easy uploading of the recording. Baby steps, I guess.
