Yes, Google Translate has used neural networks for quite a while. Recently they’ve also switched it to using the same Gemini LLMs that they give you chat interfaces with, so it’s pretty equivalent to using ChatGPT for translations. It’s just another company’s version of the same thing, wrapped in a translation interface.

This deepl?
Also note that Google Translate is AI too. It uses neural networks. Has for like a decade I believe.
Really what it seems to me you’re saying is that nobody should use machine translations and one should always hire a translator for translating things into/from languages they don’t speak?

It’s not an LLM IIRC (the deepl one at least, Google now uses gemini)

what in blazes do you think is a «large language model»?

Deepl was around way before LLMs. It was still made with neutral networks trained on research papers and the like but it couldn’t be communicated with or generate stuff for you. So u can see why axolotl thought that it didn’t use LLMs. However it seems to nowadays use LLMs

All LLMs are AIs but not all AIs are LLMs (and LLMs are what 6call are hating)

For professional work - yes everyone should hire translators.

Yes, people who got laid off from their day jobs surely can afford paying other people.
What about indie development is ‘professional’? This is not Blizzard or EA games you’re talking about.
