Maybe there's some threshold that computers cannot cross. But the constant improvements show no sign of stopping soon. I wouldn't bet against it, given a long enough time period.
- Animats 5y ago"But the constant improvements show no sign of stopping soon." True. A GPT-3 type approach probably has a big enough window and enough data to pick up on idioms. But we have a long way to go with the Asian languages. All the European languages seem to machine-translate to each other reasonably well at this point. Chinese to English is still not very good.
- devetec 5y agoTechnology tends to follow a sigmoid curve. First nothing happens, and then it seems like the world is changing and it is unstoppable, and then it falls into a new normal, not changing much. We never know when it slows down, reaching the third stage, until it's happened. For all we know, this is the furthest we get. Personally, I don't believe that, but food for thought.
