My Conversations with ChatGPT
Machine Translation (MT) and translations generated by AI have brought about a paradigm shift in the translation industry. The output of MT will continue to improve, especially when associated with clients’ translation memories and human editing. Language Service Providers are adapting and are including MT in their processes, when MT is applicable. While linguists will continue to be essential in the process, their role will shift from that of translators to validators of content generated by MT. At Excel Translations, we wanted to know what AI thinks about all of this and decided to have an open conversation on the matter with ChatGPT. I will regularly publish a question and ChatGPT’s response, uncensored.
QUESTION 48:
What are some of the long-term research challenges in machine translation, and how might they shape the future of it?
Chat GPT’s Response:
Long-term research challenges in machine translation include achieving human-level quality, handling cultural nuances, adapting to low-resource languages, specializing for domains, ensuring ethical and bias-free translations, enabling real-time communication, and integrating multimodal translation. Addressing these challenges will shape the field’s future by enhancing translation accuracy, accessibility, and cross-cultural understanding while advancing AI’s role in communication and knowledge dissemination.
