This sounds extremely exciting. But on second thought I fear with this technology we'll be getting too lazy to actually learn a foreign language - which is also awesome.
- fennecfoxy 3y agoI mean the Internet brought us all so much closer together than ever before; technology like this will make us even closer, if we can do better/perfect translations it means that we could be interacting with people in English who are native Spanish speakers, for example, without even realising (on the Internet, at least). And it's tough, because if you like travelling, it's not really feasible to learn every single language for every place...but in the future if I can pop an earbud in & get a realtime translation & they can do the same, I'd probably speak to so many more strangers when I visit non English speaking countries. It'll be so great.
- standardly 3y agothe vast majority of people are already too lazy to learn a second language... and those with the willpower to do so won't be stopped by this.
