AI-powered translation tools like DeepL and Google Translate have revolutionized how we communicate across languages. But they’re not flawless. By looking at common translation errors, we can learn not only where AI struggles, but also how languages differ in structure, meaning, and culture. Literal Translations One of the most frequent mistakes is literal translation—where AI…

AI models may seem like immaterial digital tools—but they come with a very real environmental footprint. From the massive energy required to train large language models (LLMs) to the ongoing cost of everyday queries, understanding the ecological impact of AI is key to responsible use. Training Large Models Training a state-of-the-art model like GPT-3 reportedly…

AI systems are often presented as neutral, but they are only as fair as the data they’re trained on. In multilingual contexts, bias becomes especially visible—affecting gender representation, dialect recognition, and cultural sensitivity. Understanding these biases is essential for building and using AI responsibly. Gender Bias in AI Research shows that AI models can reinforce…

Artificial intelligence has made impressive progress in understanding and generating language. But while models like GPT-4 handle English and other widely used languages well, they struggle with low-resource languages—those with limited digital text or training data. Understanding why this happens is crucial for building more inclusive AI. What Are Low-Resource Languages? A low-resource language lacks…
