Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking at a rally in Kashi, used an artificial intelligence-powered tool called Bhashini to speak to Tamil-speaking people. He was addressing the people as part of the Kasi-Tamil Sangamam on a two-day visit to his parliamentary constituency. At the very beginning of his speech, PM Modi asked the Tamil speaking people present there to wear earphones and listen to him. Bhashini-equipped earphones allowed people to hear the Tamil translation of the Prime Minister's Hindi speech. If you are wondering how you can use Bhashini, there is a way.
What is Bhashini?
During the Digital India Week 2022 held in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, the Prime Minister launched Bhashini, a translation tool that uses AI and Natural Language Processing (NLP). The purpose of this tool is to break down language barriers and facilitate conversations between people speaking different languages. Bhashini can translate 22 languages thanks to its AI capabilities.
According to the official website, Bhashini aims to unite and align the vast network of government, industry, academia, research groups and start-ups. It aims to provide all Indians easy access to the Internet and digital services in their own language and improve the quality of content available in Indian languages.
