Microsoft's description
We’re introducing 3 enhancements to AI Interpreter’s Simultaneous mode. First, the interpreter audio and live captions now match exactly, with both using the same language the user selects. Second, admins can fully disable voice simulation if needed. Third, users will have more platform voice options, with dynamic voice assignments that help distinguish each speaker and make conversations easier to follow.
