AI-102 Plan and manage an Azure AI solution Practice Question
You are deploying an Azure AI Language service solution for a multilingual customer support chatbot. The solution must support real-time translation between English, Spanish, and French. Which Azure resource should you provision?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse Azure AI Language with Azure AI Translator, assuming the 'Language' service includes translation, when in fact translation is a separate service under the Azure AI Services umbrella.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Azure AI Translator
Azure AI Translator is the correct resource because it provides real-time text translation across multiple languages, including English, Spanish, and French, via a dedicated REST API. The scenario specifically requires translation between languages, not speech recognition or generative AI, making Azure AI Translator the precise service for this task.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Azure AI Speech
Why it's wrong here
Azure AI Speech covers speech-to-text, text-to-speech and speech translation, but the chatbot requires text translation between three languages, which it does not perform. It is tempting because it is correct when the requirement is voice input or spoken-language translation rather than text.
- ✗
Azure OpenAI Service
Why it's wrong here
Azure OpenAI Service generates and understands text through large language models; it performs no translation between English, Spanish and French. It is tempting because it handles multilingual prompts conversationally, but the stem requires real-time translation, which Azure AI Translator provides as a dedicated neural machine translation resource.
- ✗
Azure AI Language
Why it's wrong here
Azure AI Language provides entity recognition, sentiment and summarisation, not machine translation between English, Spanish and French. It is tempting because it is the natural resource for text analytics on multilingual support content, and would be correct if translation were handled by a separate Translator resource.
- ✓
Azure AI Translator
Why this is correct
Azure AI Translator provides real-time text translation across English, Spanish and French, satisfying the multilingual chatbot requirement. It is the dedicated translation resource, unlike Azure AI Language, which handles entity extraction and sentiment rather than cross-language rendering.
