AI language model hopes to preserve metropolis' local dialect
The language model's development team discussing the project. A team of researchers at Shanghai University has unveiled an artificial intelligence language model designed to help preserve and promote the native Shanghai dialect. "Our true objective is to leverage this language model as a means to preserve and innovate the development of the Shanghai dialect, enabling more people, especially Shanghai, to become familiar with and use it." Renowned scholars, such as Professor Qian Nairong, a leading authority on the research of the Shanghai dialect, and Associate Professor Ding Dimeng, a Shanghai dialect expert, have laid the foundation for this project. According to doctorate candidate Fan Tianyu, a key member of the development team, a recent statistic shows that only 22 percent of Shanghai residents aged 6 to 20 still use the dialect.
