At the North European BBT, we have begun using artificial intelligence (AI) as a tool in the translation and editing of Srila Prabhupada’s books from English into other languages. Naturally, this raises important questions among devotees – about AI’s accuracy, interpretive ability, and the spiritual integrity of the resulting texts. AI is not intended to replace human expertise. Rather, it func- tions as an assistant – highlighting grammatical inconsistencies, offering alternative phrasings, or generating parallel translations for consideration. Translators and editors remain responsible for ensuring that the final text is accurate and faithful to Srila Prabhupada’s teachings.
