The "Read aloud selection" feature in Edge browser

Image
I love the "Read Aloud" feature in Immersive Reader that also appears as "Read aloud selection" in the context menu when you select text. This feature works not only for content in English but also several other world languages including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Bengali, Marathi, Urdu.

The Mercurial Grok AI Assistant Understands & Speaks Indian Languages

Image
Grok , the AI model developed by Elon Musk's xAI, can understand when you type Indian languages like Hindi, Telugu, Odia or other Indian regional languages using English letters (like when you type 'namaste' instead of 'नमस्ते'), and it can respond by mixing English with those languages. Grok doesn't necessarily need the native script of these languages. It has natural language processing abilities that extend to multiple languages. This is great innovation because many people in India, especially in online communication, use transliteration. Grok can generate responses that combine English words and phrases with words and phrases from the regional language you used in your input. For example, if you ask a question using a mix of English and Telugu transliteration, Grok might respond with a sentence that includes both English and Telugu words. Check these Hindi, Telugu, Odiya samples - Grok, ab Hindi mein Grōk, ippuḍu telugulō Grok, Oḍiā re This way Grok is more...
