Unbabel has launched Widn.AI, an AI-powered translation service that CEO Vasco Pedro claims could eliminate the need for human translators within three years. The service utilizes the company's proprietary large language model, Tower, to translate in 32 languages, marking a shift from their previous hybrid model that combined AI with human editors. While acknowledging a potential decrease in revenue per translated word, Pedro believes the overall volume of translated content will drive growth, as Unbabel seeks to raise $20 million to $50 million in funding for further development.
