Automatic Language Translation
World's First real time wearable language translator will
be smaller than imagined Star Trek universal translator: "A portable device has a button and a speaker. One person speaks into Ili while holding down the button; after the user stops speaking, the speaker relays the message in the chosen language. (Right now, Ili only supports English, Chinese and Japanese, but its parent company, Logbar, has promised more will be available in the future.) Version two will have French, Thai, and Korean Ili's novel feature — and the perk that distinguishes it from translation services like Google — is its capacity to work without a wireless connection. It relies on its own database of words and phrases, which means it can conceivably be used in any situation, whether you're scaling the mountains of Chile or stuck underground on the New York City subway."

Humans May Be Shockingly Close to Decoding the Language of Animals
"A nonprofit called Earth Species Project (ESP) has one goal: decode non-human communication. The organization believes the nonstop advancements in artificial intelligence can help seal the deal—fast. “We believe that an understanding of non-human languages will transform our relationship with the rest of nature,” the organization’s website says. Of course, not only does Earth Species Project want to decode animal languages—it also wants to start communicating with the animals." See: https://www.popularmechanics.com/sci...imal-language/ |
