Google has announced its intention of expanding its already expansive language portfolio by ten-fold utilizing artificial intelligence.

The 1,000 Languages Initiative is Google's commitment to build an AI model that supports the 1,000 most-spoken languages across the globe to make information more accessible.

"Language is fundamental to how people communicate and make sense of the world," said Jeff Dean, Google senior fellow. "But more than 7,000 languages are spoken around the world, and only a few are well represented online today."

Since the undertaking is extremely ambitious, the project will likely take many years to see fruition. However, Google is already working on reaching its goal.

The tech giant developed a Universal Speech Model (USM) that is trained on over 400 languages, providing the most coverage in a speech model to date, according to a blog post. Google is also partnering with communities around the world to source speech data.
