Translate

With Select AI, you can use generative AI from the OCI translation service to translate your text into the language of your choice.

You can use this feature alongside the existing Select AI RAG. You can combine translate with DBMS_CLOUD_AI.GENERATE or narrate to use generative AI for producing translated outputs in your preferred language.
