We've released a fix for the clipboard issue affecting macOS dictation, and it's now live in production. The clipboard now restores normally shortly after dictation, as expected. Thank you for your patience.

Fix shipped and deployed. We're now monitoring the clipboard-restore issue. Please let us know if you continue to see it — note this does not resolve the separate Chrome clipboard issue.

We have identified an issue that causes the dictation transcript to persist on the clipboard for a much longer time on some macOS applications. Users may notice that Cmd-V pastes the dictation and not what they copied prior to dictating. We are working on a mitigation.
