Google AI Creates Its Own Universal Language For Smart Translation

Google's artificial intelligence (AI) has created its first own language through the use of machine learning, allowing it to improve how it translates languages. The search giant fired up its Google Neural Machine Translation (GNMT) back in September to aid the development of the Google Translate service. Google found that be training the system to learn to say translate English to French and French to Italian it could create a means for the system to translate English to Italian even if it has not studied the language before. The system works by analysing whole sentences of language rather than individual words then inferring similarities between them and other sentences in different languages to seek out common patterns in the languages. By doing this the system can translate a language into another even if it has not seen a translation between the languages before.
