PathSay Project uses AI to cross language barriers

Thousands of the world's languages remain largely invisible to modern translation technology, but researchers and students at Brigham Young University are working to change that. Through a project called Pathsay, students in the BYU MATRIX lab are partnering with international BYU-Pathway Worldwide students to collect speech and text data for low-resource languages, helping preserve linguistic heritage and improve access to translation tools for communities often overlooked by mainstream technology.
