Google has built an algorithm that enables it to translate between languages that it doesn't know.
The so-called 'zero-shot translation' technology is a self-taught method of translating whereby Google Brain the research collaboration that specializes in 'deep learning' projects uses artificial intelligence to translate between languages that it doesn't know.
The translations are made possible by use of a new system called the Google Neural Machine Translation, according to a blog posting by Google Brain.
The end result is that instead of requiring painstaking effort and resources to translate between two languages which was the case when Google Translate first began over 10 years ago the GNMT is now capable of using a single system that can translate between languages it doesn't know.

Within a decade or two, artificial intelligence will beat humans at most intellectual endeavors.
