Meta has introduced an advanced AI model called SeamlessM4T that can translate and transcribe nearly 100 languages across text and speech. This model aims to break language barriers and facilitate communication across diverse languages.

It has the ability to recognize when a speaker is code-switching or when someone moves between two or more languages in one sentence. It also recognizes gender bias in languages.

Unlike separate models, SeamlessM4T’s integrated approach reduces errors and delays, enhancing translation efficiency and quality. The model covers various translation scenarios, including speech-to-text, speech-to-speech, and text translation.

Usage: The example can be used to showcase how S&T can be used to preserve and communicate traditional language and break language barriers.
