Can AI translate spoken language?

Can AI translate spoken language?

AI translators are digital tools that use advanced artificial intelligence to not only translate the words that are written or spoken, but also to translate the meaning (and sometimes sentiment) of the message. This results in greater accuracy and fewer misunderstandings than when using simple machine translation.

Can AI replace translators?

No, AI will never replace human translators because machines are unable to capture the nuance that comes from each language’s different grammatical rules, semantics, syntax and cultural influence.

What benefits do you see of using a machine learning AI translator rather than a human translator?

The advantages of machine translation

  • Many free tools are readily available (Google Translate, Skype Translator, etc.)
  • Quick turnaround time.
  • You can translate between multiple languages using one tool.
  • Translation technology is constantly improving.

How good is AI translation?

State of the art neural machine translation engines are now capable of instantly translating texts with 60-90\% accuracy (more on this accuracy later). But the technology is not without its faults when put in practice for real-world translation.

Is interpreter a dying profession?

In fact, employment of translators and interpreters is projected to grow 20\% between 2019 and 2029, much faster than the average for all occupations which means that a career in translation could be very worthwhile. No, translation is not a dying career – and it probably won’t ever be.

Will interpreters become obsolete?

Instead, as the world’s economy has become more globally focused, demand for human translation has remained strong. And while tools like Google Translate help immensely to get the job done, they still cannot replace human translators. Indeed, many experts predicted that by now human translation would be obsolete.
