How a Smart Chinese AI is Helping Rescue Teams in Myanmar! 🚑🤖
Hey there! Have you ever wondered how technology can help in emergencies? Well, here’s an amazing story about how a special kind of artificial intelligence (AI) from China is helping rescue teams in Myanmar (also known as Burma).
Meet DeepSeek: The Super Translator 🗣️💬
DeepSeek is a super-smart AI language model (that’s a fancy term for a computer program that understands and uses language). It was developed in China by the National Language Service Corps of China and Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU). What’s really cool is that it was built in just seven hours!
So, what does DeepSeek do? It helps translate between Chinese, Burmese, and English. This is super helpful because rescue teams from China are in Myanmar, and they need to communicate with the local people to help them during emergencies like earthquakes.
Why DeepSeek is Special 🌟
Traditional translation machines sometimes struggle, especially with special words used in emergencies. But DeepSeek uses AI to learn and understand these special terms better! According to Han Lintao from BLCU, when they mix special emergency words with DeepSeek’s knowledge, the translations are much better than regular translation machines.
A Website to Help Rescuers 🖥️
Han even made a website with DeepSeek’s help! The website shows important rescue words in Chinese and Burmese, along with how to pronounce them. They had students from Myanmar at BLCU check the translations to make sure they were correct.
Guess what? Han tried using another AI called ChatGPT, but the students said DeepSeek did a better job! 🙌
Making It Even Better 🚀
Since launching the website on March 29, Han has added more cool features based on what the rescue teams needed. He added a voice translator so people can hear the words, and he included maps to help with place names.
Helping So Many People 🌏
Over 700 people in Myanmar have used the website so far. This is the first time a Chinese AI language model like DeepSeek has been used in international earthquake rescue work!
Technology Making a Difference 💡❤️
Isn’t it amazing how technology can help people in need? Thanks to DeepSeek, rescuers and locals can understand each other better, making rescue efforts faster and more effective.
Who knows? Maybe someday you’ll create something that helps people around the world too!
