The Future does not need Translators. Or does it?How near are we to the point in time that machines will be better at translating most content?
• The point is already there:
Machines are translating today probably around 100 times what
human translators are doing.
• “Super-Human” machine abilities• Proven in Vision
• Proven in Speech Recognition for very specific tasks
• Proven by DeepMind in for the Game of Go• Needed creativity, strategy, overall
situation analysis
• Why not for “translation”?
Human translators vs. or w/ Machine
Project Analysis
Project Planning & Evaluation
Project Execution
Project Monitoring
Project Finalization
Translation or Post-Editing
Editing/Reviewing
Proofreading
DTP
With Great Power Comes Great ResponsibilitiesNew opportunities coming from deep learning
• From Translation to Post-edit to automatic Post-editing of Human Translation• Translation Assistant
• From Machine Translation to Transcreation• Through concept of “thought vector”
• For even more advanced use that we can not even anticipate
