2018. Microsoft Translator gets offline AI translations
Despite the fact that most translation apps continue to function offline, they are unable to utilize the machine learning algorithms that drive their performance. This limitation also applied to the Microsoft Translator app on Amazon Fire, Android, and iOS—until now. As of today, the app has been updated to run a slightly modified neural translation even when offline. Remarkably, Microsoft has achieved this without requiring a specialized AI chip in modern smartphones, making it accessible on a wide range of devices.
2014. Video: real-time voice translator in Skype
Microsoft's Bing Translator, an online translation service, has always been overshadowed by Google Translate. All the advancements, such as full text translation, mobile support, voice recognition, and translation playback, initially debuted in Google Translate before being replicated in Bing Translator. However, Microsoft has now taken the lead. During the CodeConf conference, Satya Nadella showcased a voice translator in Skype that can recognize phrases in one language and play them back in another (almost) instantly. This breakthrough enables individuals from different countries to communicate in their native languages. Currently, the feature only supports English and German, but Satya mentioned that a working version with additional languages will be available in Skype before the end of this year.
