What's better than a presentation to one audience?eroticize synonym A presentation that can be given to any audience in any country, in any language, without laborious hand-translation.
That's the promise of a new Microsoft PowerPoint cognitive service, PowerPoint Presentation Translator cooked up by Garage (Microsoft's experimental project arm) and demonstrated publicly for the first time on Wednesday at the company's Build developers conference in Seattle.
SEE ALSO: With the Surface Laptop, Microsoft leads the PC industry back into the lightPowerPoint Presentation Translator can auto-translate slides in any one of a dozen languages, including Hungarian, Czech, French, Chinese, German and Spanish. Even more impressively, it will live-translate the presenter's word in a caption box just below the presentation.
Backed by machine learning, the cognitive service doesn't just try to find a language match for every word -- it looks at context.
In the preview demonstration I saw, PowerPoint Translator left the slide acronyms intact, while properly translating the slide text around it.
Its real-time captioning appeared instantly, a semi-miracle considering the cacophony in the demo room. That said, not being a German or Spanish speaker, I can't speak to the veracity of the translation. The few words I did pick up looked accurate.
This isn't the first time Microsoft has demonstrated its real-time translation prowess. We first saw the service at work in Skype Translator almost three years ago. Now the service is migrating to other Microsoft tools.
It's another demonstration of how Microsoft can use the wealth of data it has in the cloud and apply it as local artificial intelligence in some of its most popular productivity products.
Harry Shum, Microsoft's executive vice president of artificial intelligence (AI) said in a release that this is just beginning.
"AI now has the potential to disrupt every single vertical industry, like banking or retail, and every single business process, from sales and marketing to HR and recruiting."
