Google plans emergency sound event detection as an always-on ML feature.

Did it turn out to be true?

Never settled. The company has announced the product and nobody ever confirmed or denied this. Kamila Wojciechowska reported it on Oct 28, 2024 in Android Authority. That was 653 days before Google Pixel 11 was announced on Aug 12, 2026. The announcement-time material I could verify does not publish enough information to resolve this claim without treating silence as a contradiction.
