 # Unreleased
 
 - [feature] Added support for on-device structured output generation using `generateObject` (#8395)

-- [changed] Adjusts `LiveSession.isClosed` to better reflect underlying connection closure state and not consume frames (#8511)
-- [changed] Replaced the `"function"` conversational role with `"user"` for function response content. (#8508)
