I find it unlikely a machine translator would spit out phrases like "counterfeit conscience" and "haze figuring" over AI and cloud computing with 1 pass. Plagiarism via multiple pass throughs seems much more likely.
- nerdponx 5y agoIronically this is exactly what I would have expected from machine translation 15 (edit: 20?) years ago. My friends and I used to get a kick out of running phrases through several rounds of machine translation in different languages and finally back into English, and then playing them with the Mac OS 9 text-to-speech system.
