Summary:
- This article discusses the development of a new artificial intelligence (AI) system that can translate between over 100 different languages, including many less commonly spoken languages.
- The AI system, called M4, was created by researchers at Meta (formerly Facebook) and is capable of translating between language pairs that it has not been explicitly trained on.
- This breakthrough in multilingual translation could have significant implications for improving communication and access to information for people around the world who speak diverse languages.
