Open Source Emulator uses AI to Translate Games

There are tons of games where users of western language speakers have requested official translated release but never got them. Mother3, Ace Attorney investigation etc are few examples.

Sometimes community takes on the project but that require lots of time and effort and patching the game.

Enter AI which can translate on the fly. Retroarch has introduced an AI service which uses google on-screen text translation feature to get those obscured game translated on the go. This is obviously not foolproof and can lead to some funny translation. But its better than nothing.

Here is the video which showcases the process:
