AIs can be very helpful when you have no time to learn each language on a journey. We met one fellow from China who was motorcycling across Canada then down to Argentina. He had no English capability but he sat with us for dinner and was able to communicate via a hand held device that we spoke into and it translated.
Thank you for the wonderful article Hui.
