Re: My thoughts on universal translators...
(Anonymous) 2015-06-26 01:03 am (UTC)(link)Languages evolve constantly (and simultaneously in different ways in different places), so there'll always be limits when it comes to machine translation.
Those limits are more obvious in everyday speech and literary texts and no amount of technological development can fix that.
Technical fields can really, really, benefit from improvements, but even they have to deal with the issue of low-quality inputs and although they can fight back with a high-quality selection for the data base, the problem of dealing with low-quality source files is still there and that's not a current technological issue.
IA that Uruha's jobs is... surprisingly limited (and maybe silly in the "ok, that's just not possible" kind of way because there can be far too many languages), but I still think that without people who know those languages having a universal translation won't be possible in the first place.
