Sber's AI "GigaChat" now speaks Yakut

Now residents of the region can address the neural network in their native language - from ordinary household questions to assistance in studies and work

The Yakut language has become part of Russian artificial intelligence. Now it is supported by Sber's AI assistant "GigaChat". In Yakut, one can communicate with the neural network, search for information, prepare texts, and receive assistance with daily tasks. This was announced by the head of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Aysen Nikolaev.

AI is capable of assisting in studies, work, information retrieval, and text preparation. The head of Yakutia emphasized that for the region, this is an important step for the preservation and development of the language in a modern environment.

The Yakut language is becoming part of the modern digital environment, entering services that people use every day. A language retains its strength when it is heard not only in traditions and culture, but also in technology, education, and new forms of communication
