  • BLOOM: A Multilingual LLM Built to Reduce Bias

    Most large AI models are trained primarily in English, which can lead to bias against less represented languages. The BLOOM project, however, was created to change this by making AI more multilingual and transparent. What Is BLOOM? BLOOM is a Large Language Model (LLM) released in 2022 by the BigScience collaboration, a group of over…

  • Common Translation Errors and What They Tell Us

    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…

  • Bias in Multilingual AI: Gender, Dialects, and Culture

    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…
