Details

This AI system helps House of Commons and Senate translators by automatically producing draft translations that they then review and refine. It was built by the National Research Council Canada in collaboration with the Translation Bureau and is trained on past human translator outputs. The system is used by Government of Canada employees, not by members of the public directly, and users are informed that AI is involved in the translation process.
