ai can't translate languages while being given JUST phrases in the target language. It needs phrases in the target language AND English translations
If you had hidden cameras, you could gather data on how the language is being used in various scenarios. That might be enough for an ai to use to "learn" the language
Obviously I understand that training a neural network is necessary, but AI has been used in some capacity to translate previously indecipherable languages.
