Translating websites using AI

Using a browser’s built-in AI translation tool can be a great way to make the internet more accessible, displaying the content in your preferred language.

Different browsers have their own translation tools but they all work in a similar way. 

Start by opening the website that you want to translate.

Depending on which browser you’re using, the translation window (a small box below the address bar) may open.

You can switch between the original and translated versions using the options in the translation window.
