The Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa will make its data and content corpus available to Euskorpora and HiTZ Zentroa with the aim of integrating Basque into artificial intelligence technologies. This collaboration was formalised this morning with the signing of an agreement between the provincial councillor and representatives of both entities, reinforcing the institutional commitment to the digital future of the language.

Through this agreement, the provincial institution will contribute strategically to Euskorpora’s Euskorpus project. The aim of this initiative is to create a solid digital corpus of audio and text that will enable the development of open source models and solutions tailored to the needs of the public and private sectors.

The Provincial Council’s participation will enable progress to be made in the collection and transformation of quality content, which is essential for training technologies such as automatic transcription and advanced translation. This alliance is key to guaranteeing the technological sovereignty of the Basque language and consolidating a competitive digital ecosystem that is a benchmark in the field of artificial intelligence.
