You mean the job of a translator is by definition impossible?
Edit: Yes, for sure there will be a delay of a few words or even one or two short sentences. Just like human translators. Not a problem I think.
Edit 2: Very curious why my first comment was downvoted?

- ofrzeta 2y agoObviously translation is possible but not "synchronously" as you wish. From what I understand 200ms is "time-to-first-token", so I still wonder how that works because, as I wrote in my comment above, typically there is no one-to-one correspondence of words/tokens from one language to another. (I didn't downvote your comment)
- ein0p 2y agoYou can’t translate word by word. You need entire phrases, sometimes pretty long ones, to understand the meaning.

- nmstoker 2y agoSo what would you do if translating from a language that puts the main verb at the end of a sentence, into a language that doesn't... Feels like there will be plenty of cases you can't just get around.
- ein0p 2y agoNot to mention that sometimes you need more than one sentence to get the full meaning
