Amazon Adds Live Translation to Alexa Features - Voicebot.ai

Amazon has introduced the new Live Translation feature to Alexa, enabling real-time translations between certain languages in both voice and text form. The feature uses the same AI models as Alexa's bilingual understanding to recognize which side of several pairs of languages is being spoken and translating to the other. Right now, the translations are limited to English and with French, Spanish, Hindi, German, Italian, or Brazilian Portuguese. Live Translate available on any Echo device by asking Alexa in English to translate German or French, or any of the other languages. When the voice assistant beeps, the user can speak either language naturally and Alexa will subsequently repeat back what was said in the other language.
