<h3><strong>AI-Powered Natural Language Search Feature</strong></h3><p>We're thrilled to announce a major update to the Locus Elite app, introducing an AI-powered feature that supports natural language queries. This advanced technology allows users to input search terms as naturally as they would speak to a colleague, simplifying the search process significantly.&nbsp;</p><h3><strong>Multilingual Keyword Translation</strong></h3><p>In addition to interpreting natural language, the app automatically translates keywords into both Arabic and English. This enhancement ensures that queries are prepared in multiple languages without any extra effort from the user.</p><h3><strong>Guidance for Detailed Analysis</strong></h3><p>For precise analysis and statistics, we recommend using the traditional search method with keywords and Boolean operators. This option remains available alongside the new natural language search.</p><figure id="figure-thxwjx3lrlv3izlem" class=""><img id="thxwjx3lrlv3izlem" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/17dbSknLQY37aWcSc6MwrdB4Gldkv0Tyi7RwM1yOnC1IKVORVsqfnJvHAcfdqAsI.png" alt="person holding light bulb" title="person holding light bulb" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-2xl md:rounded-3xl lg:rounded-4xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 0% 0%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="0%" data-positiony="0%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/17dbSknLQY37aWcSc6MwrdB4Gldkv0Tyi7RwM1yOnC1IKVORVsqfnJvHAcfdqAsI.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 0% 0%;"></figure><p>Screenshot from the app is shown above. &nbsp;You can get to the feature, using the menu shown below.</p><p><img id="i0z1fyofxlv3j0ek7" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/3b4fsixlr7IfPNTxOKS1fE1dVYiK0mceulqT3T5O30A8swyTV3mJSQFHu9xwJbqV.png" alt="high angle photo of person holding turned on smartphone with tall buildings background" title="high angle photo of person holding turned on smartphone with tall buildings background" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-2xl md:rounded-3xl lg:rounded-4xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 75% 0%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="75%" data-positiony="0%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/3b4fsixlr7IfPNTxOKS1fE1dVYiK0mceulqT3T5O30A8swyTV3mJSQFHu9xwJbqV.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 75% 0%;"></p><p><br>Utilize the new search features with <strong>examples such as</strong>:</p><p style="padding-left: 40px;" data-mce-style="padding-left: 40px;">"Bring posts on social media users reacting to Iran's firing of missiles on Israel."</p><p style="padding-left: 40px;" data-mce-style="padding-left: 40px;">"Media articles on the launch of COP28 in UAE."</p><p style="padding-left: 40px;" data-mce-style="padding-left: 40px;">"Dubai tourism from people based in the UK."</p><p style="padding-left: 40px;" data-mce-style="padding-left: 40px;">"Outlets from Arab countries on UAE economy."</p><h3><strong>Exciting Future Development: Voice Search</strong></h3><p>Coming soon, Locus Elite will introduce voice search capabilities, allowing users to conduct searches by simply speaking into their devices.
