Lost in translation? Amazon Q Developer now speaks more languages

Programming is an increasingly global profession, and developer tools are finally catching up. On Wednesday, Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced new language supports in Q Developer, its coding assistant, to better serve its global user base. Amazon says the assistant can now deliver feedback accurately in multiple languages, creating a familiar work environment for developers of all backgrounds. For much of its history, software has been rooted in English -- a reality that gives primarily Western, English-speaking developers an upper hand. To address this, companies behind consumer AI tools have begun to roll out regional and language-specific products to improve usage amongst non-English-speaking communities.
