BBC News Labs' work has been "highly commended" in @Computing_News' Technology Products of the Year 2022 awards.
Our entry for "Innovator of the Year" was an ambitious endeavour to develop machine translation models for low-resource languages.

It's out! It has been a joy working with @AdaLovelaceInst on this. As BBC creates more complex technologies, maintaining the high trust of our users have is our top priority. Our involvement with this report reflects our commitment to transparency, and public service technology.
