most Latin text have been translated once and more then 100 years ago while most ancient Arabic text have never been translated. this is an old problem.

I see AI as savior here esp with reconstructing old languages we only have small amount of text saved

Which oldest Arabic text do you mean?

Most ancient texts (i.e. Egyptian papyri) are expected to be of too little use to even scan, let alone translate.
