Faster yes, but better remains to be seen.
I have my doubts on whether machine translation that isn't based on language understanding can ever be trusted not to make egregious mistakes.
- Houshalter 10y agoIt's better than previous machine translation systems, I mean. Sure humans can translate better, but they can't describe how in a useful way. Linguists have spent decades trying to come up with hand designed language models, input knowledge about the world in computer readable formats, etc. But this simple AI model can learn to do a better job in a week from raw data.
