👉 What do we think about learning a language in the METAverse?
💡 Metaverse might take center stage when it comes to developing AI-enhanced cross-cultural communication and language learning.
Meta, which is now developing its own metaverse, attracts users from different countries. There are 111 different languages officially supported by Meta’s social media platforms, such as Facebook.
Considering there are over 7,000 languages and even more dialects in the world, the market potential is huge. And a lot of users are still left behind.
The existing 2.9 billion Facebook users are mainly staying within their language group, rarely communicating with those who speak a different language.
In February 2022, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the company was working on building an AI-powered universal speech translator for languages in its metaverse. The solution could work for everyone in the digital world.
“The ability to communicate with anyone in any language — that’s a superpower people have dreamed of forever,” Zuckerberg said. “AI is going to deliver that in our lifetimes.”
