Roblox has launched an AI-based chat translation system to foster global connectivity among its 70 million daily users.
The new system is advanced, with a billion parameters, and supports 16 languages while recognizing platform-specific slangs.
It boasts a low latency of about 100 milliseconds and includes a feature to view the original text for transparency.
Roblox's development team is focused on continuous improvement through user feedback and plans to expand translations to in-game visual elements.
There are future plans for automatic voice chat translation to further enhance player interaction.
Roblox's CEO, David Baszucki, views this technology as a step towards metaverse interoperability, including the movement of digital assets across various platforms.
