Web Scraping With GPT: Translate Foreign News Headlines

Coursera Project Network via Coursera

Overview

The internet, as we know, is a treasure trove of information, but language barriers often limit our ability to access all of it. In this 2-hour long project-based course, you will unlock the potential of accessing global content by integrating web scraping techniques with the power of OpenAI's translation capabilities. You will use modern web scraping Python tools to extract content from multiple international language news websites and then utilise the OpenAI API to translate and summarize that content into concise English news summaries. By the end of this journey, you will have crafted a Python application capable of providing on-the-fly content summarization from any web source, bridging the linguistic gap and making global content more accessible. This course is tailored for learners who are keen on blending the realms of web data extraction and AI-powered translation. To make the most out of this project, a foundational understanding of Python, basic web scraping concepts, and a curiosity for AI-driven solutions are recommended.
