 So much content is locked behind language

Imagine, for example, you're new and join Nostr to see if there are others that are interested in Psychology or Philosophy or whatever topic, but you only speak Spanish

There may be a ton of English content, but you don't speak English

To the scope of this user, it may feel like there's no content because the filter of language has dwindled it down to only a few posts every day

AI is a huge unlock for this, but it's not sufficient to only have text translation; image and video are needed to as they are large part of the social experience

This could literally 10x the content quantity and quality a given user sees without any new posts or users being added to the network, which only further compounds as more users join
