This problem occurs in languages other than Japanese. It arises when AI systems based on English processing structures handle non-English language structures. Meaning shifts in machine translation have been observed in Arabic, Chinese, Korean, and Hindi as well. #AIAlignment #LLM #MachineTranslation
In English, you have 8 different words for writing operations: Polish, Refine, Edit, Revise, Rewrite, Rephrase, Reword, Paraphrase. In Japanese? Just one: 書いて (write). All 8 meanings compressed into 3 characters. This is why AI destroys Japanese output. #NLP #Linguistics #MachineTranslation
A truly European software forge would fully respect the diversity of natural languages. In addition to having a fully localized user interface, it would support automatically translating all user-generated texts, so that people could work in their native or preferred language instead of having […]

Physical Asia reaction video with English subtitles that were clearly generated by Google Translate. Subtitle says, "No, I don't want to go. I told them to keep their dicks low, but" instead of "No, I told you to crouch down, but..."

Greenlandic, a language spoken by only 57,000 people in Greenland, serves as an example of how a language with few speakers can send AI into a doom spiral.

Adequacy vs Fluency Trade‑off in Machine Translation Evaluation
MT metrics align more with human adequacy than fluency, and WMT meta‑evaluation favors adequacy‑oriented scores. Authors suggest synthetic synthesis to balance evaluations. Read more: getnews.me/adequacy-vs-fluency-trad... #machinetranslation #adequacy
LLM‑Generated Synthetic Data Boosts Low‑Resource Machine Translation
