A film about the life of Jesus made in 1979 has just been translated into its 2,100th language and the group behind the film expects to use artificial intelligence to add an estimated 200 more languages by 2025.

“The AI applications that we’re looking at when it comes to translation are in step with the Bible translation community organizations such as Wycliffe Bible Translators and others,” Josh Newell, executive director of the Jesus Film Project, said in an interview. The newest language is Waorani, spoken by approximately 3,000 indigenous people of Ecuador’s Amazon region. Nearly 70 years ago, warriors from that tribe martyred five American Christian missionaries, including Jim Elliot and Nate Saint.
Mr. Newell said members of the Waorani tribe asked for the film, which draws its text from the Gospel of Luke, to be translated into their language.
