In `SMART` mode, the model performs disfluency removal (eliminating filler words, repetitions, and false starts), light grammatical cleanup, automatic formatting (paragraphs, bullet points, numbered lists), and minor user edits (inline self-corrections). Timestamps and diarization are incompatible with mode `SMART`.
      - `sourceText` string: Optional. The source text to be edited or rewritten via voice instructions. When provided in `SMART` mode, the model evaluates the audio input against this text and emits the complete replacement text in the candidate response rather than appending to it.
      - `wordTimestamp` boolean: Optional. Configures word-level timestamp generation.
    - `candidateCount` integer: Optional. The number of candidate responses to generate. A higher `candidate_count` can provide more options to choose from, but it also consumes more resources. This can be useful for generating a variety of responses and selecting the best one.
    - `enableAffectiveDialog` boolean: Optional. If enabled, the model will detect emotions and adapt its responses accordingly. For example, if the model detects that the user is frustrated, it may provide a more empathetic response.
    - `frequencyPenalty` number, float: Optional. Penalizes tokens based on their frequency in the generated text. A positive value helps to reduce the repetition of words and phrases. Valid values can range from [-2.0, 2.0].

      - `prominentPeople` 'PROMINENT_PEOPLE_UNSPECIFIED' | 'ALLOW_PROMINENT_PEOPLE' | 'BLOCK_PROMINENT_PEOPLE': Optional. Controls whether prominent people (celebrities) generation is allowed. If used with personGeneration, personGeneration enum would take precedence. For instance, if ALLOW_NONE is set, all person generation would be blocked. If this field is unspecified, the default behavior is to allow prominent people.
    - `logprobs` integer: Optional. The number of top log probabilities to return for each token. This can be used to see which other tokens were considered likely candidates for a given position. A higher value will return more options, but it will also increase the size of the response.
    - `maxOutputTokens` integer: Optional. The maximum number of tokens to generate in the response. A token is approximately four characters. The default value varies by model. This parameter can be used to control the length of the generated text and prevent overly long responses.
    - `mediaResolution` 'MEDIA_RESOLUTION_UNSPECIFIED' | 'MEDIA_RESOLUTION_LOW' | 'MEDIA_RESOLUTION_MEDIUM' | 'MEDIA_RESOLUTION_HIGH': Optional. The token resolution at which input media content is sampled. This is used to control the trade-off between the quality of the response and the number of tokens used to represent the media. A higher resolution allows the model to perceive more detail, which can lead to a more nuanced response, but it will also use more tokens. This does not affect the image dimensions sent to the model.
    - `presencePenalty` number, float: Optional. Penalizes tokens that have already appeared in the generated text. A positive value encourages the model to generate more diverse and less repetitive text. Valid values can range from [-2.0, 2.0].

    - `responseJsonSchema` unknown
    - `responseLogprobs` boolean: Optional. If set to true, the log probabilities of the output tokens are returned. Log probabilities are the logarithm of the probability of a token appearing in the output. A higher log probability means the token is more likely to be generated. This can be useful for analyzing the model's confidence in its own output and for debugging.
    - `responseMimeType` string: Optional. The IANA standard MIME type of the response. The model will generate output that conforms to this MIME type. Supported values include 'text/plain' (default) and 'application/json'. The model needs to be prompted to output the appropriate response type, otherwise the behavior is undefined.
