AI AND TRANSLATIONS


 

I am very skeptical about AI as far as translations are concerned, which may come as good news to professional translators all over the world. AI translations are introducing artificial changes into languages, and making up new ways of expression alien to languages. Language evolution has its own laws and peculiarities that can be studied in the evolution of Romance Languages from Latin, for example.  In the change or evolution of language, a new tool has been invented that is totally artificial. The Spanish phrase "qué Dios te oíga" expresses that the wish just said may come true. The English equivalent is "from your lips to God's ears". AI gives me, "May God hear you" and "I hope God hears you." Of course, I may be mistaken but I think not. When using artificial translations, please check the result with a knowledgeable human. Be cautious, especially when it comes to preserving the subtleties and cultural nuances of language.
