AI Translates 5000-Year-Old Cuneiform

A team from Israel has developed an AI model that translates Cuneiform, a 5000-year-old writing system, into English within seconds. This model, developed at Tel Aviv University, uses Neural Machine Translation (NMT) and has fairly good accuracy. Despite the complexity of the language and age, the AI was successfully trained and can now help to uncover the mysteries of the past. You can try an early demo of this model on The Babylon Engine and its source code is available on GitHub on Akkademia and the Colaboratory.
