Well done

But if you have a large body of work, training an AI model to learn the language and translate it is a simple procedure is you understand Machine Learning.

The biggest problem is having a body of work for her ML model to learn from

Hausa language will be the easiest to develop in nigeria because of existing channels such as BBC Hausa and VOA Hausa
True. Most likely no ground level coding was involved. Google has internal pipelines for this already. I guess the major work was the Google bureaucratic processes, data engineering and evaluation processes to ensure accuracy and other major western concerns (fairness, controversial translations, gender etc). That is still big work though. She still deserves recognition.

Beautiful.
Time to make a Yorùbá & Itsekiris speech-to-text software.

But this is my only fear:-
It will be used in further surveillance/ spy situations.
Imagine you and your friend conversing in Yorùbá in a racist location in America, believing your conversation is secured, and one white fool is recording and tranlating what you are saying?

Scary. The Caucasians are gradually moving to their one-world surveillance society, a dystopia.
Aren't you more racists than Americans?

Incredible development !

This is what we need to promote our language in the international scene.

Efforts like these are highly commendable and worth calling for.

Kudos to the proud igbo daughter

I won't be quick to say " no ".

But let's open the conversation:-

- which ethnicity would perpetuate a lie that the have talked with Almighty , and he has declared that Black ppl are the beneficiary of the curse of Ham, and therefore will be slaves till eternity?

- which ethnicity would go to a black country ( Kemet) , keaen about their secrets, be taught by their priests and within 1000 yrs, woukd go and change their gods to a new one ( with lies and false myths) because they disdain their black teachers ( Kemetic origin of greek gods and civilisation )

- which ethnicity will visit you and act as friends in the 1440s, spy on your country, you offer them goodwill and welcome them , and within 100 yrs, they cone with guns and murders ( slave traders) ; in order to destroy your own country, make you desolate and killed off the good Kings and queens who opposed the slavers , while you make deals with the saboteurs within them.

- have you ever seen a black African , tell a European that they must move to the back of a bus , and stand up from their seats or sidewalks when a blackman walks by?

- how many European leaders were secretly exiles, uprooted or killed by Africans, so as to destroy their country? What happened to :

Jaja of Opobo ( tricked and poisoned)

Lukumí ( a Yorùbá woman leader in the Carribbean, TORN APART INTO SHREDS BY HORSES strung to her by the Spanish conquerers

the first president of Mexico ( a black man) who was killed ( by Americans or the Spanish) for being against their further colonial efforts

[bPatrick Lumimba[/b] ; the 1st prime minister if the Congo, tortured, beaten , hung, shot and had ACID poured on his dead body. After killing him, his body parts were shredded into pieces by the Belgians, who kept parts of his bodies till 2022. Congolese ppl of about 10-20 million were massacred by the french- Belgian (?) killer called Leopold: a criminal worse than the Nazis .

- Gaddafi:- we don't need to talk much about him. Since "democracy " were brought to Libya, Libya is now a failed state: a country better than 70% of European countries ore-2010.

- Thomas Sankara:- murdered and killed by paid mercenaries of France, because he said he won't repay thw IMF loans which he said were fraudulently imposed on them & that they had overpaid the interest and principal. Burkina Faso is facing western- backed terrorists called ISis till this day

- I wish I could go on about Africans put into cages as exhibition all over Europe, black American children used as bait for alligators in the USA, the KKK terrorists who were CHRISTIANS and were commiting massive killings of black Americans in the south, the mass killings of kenyans during the mau-mau wars: black men were castrated, murdered and killed with their families, THE killings of Igbo grandmothers and mothers in the eastern Nigeria of Aba in the 1920s by the british for protesting the slave taxes on them ( Aba women's massacre).

I could go on and on, to prove to you that you know the truth , but as usual..the white supremacists has no truth within them.

It's a win win situation for NIGERIA as a whole..

When you are outside the shores of Nigeria, we identify ourselves as Nigerians...

Nobody is interested in your ethnicity..

Greater Nigeria
Nigerians are smart and intelligent people..

There is always one dense individual that will not accept loss and that is you. Just shut up and allow igbos to celebrate their own how you guys celebrate yours.
But you were the ones that mentioned Yoruba first in the thread . Y’all are the most tribalistic set of people that like to cry foul
