Apple backs Native American language on keyboard

Technology companies, such as Apple and Google, are working to support native languages to help prevent their extinction, especially those with dwindling numbers of new speakers, like Cherokee, which has fewer than 1,500 active speakers. Since 2010, Apple has managed to add the Cherokee language to its keyboards, currently supporting over 200 diverse languages, including Indigenous American languages and Semitic languages. Generative artificial intelligence is being used to revive extinct or threatened languages, alongside efforts from the Unicode organization, which oversees language encodings and related technologies. The goal of supporting these languages is to enable the new generation to access them through technology, particularly since most of their older speakers are senior citizens, which contributes to the preservation of cultural and linguistic heritage.
