Thread: NY Times analizes Google translation and itīs competitors

Hi All,

I have read this article at the NY Times site, and think it is super interesting.

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2...translate.html

Seems Google is hardly working on automated translations.


Here comes my question:

Do you really think the translation process of a project will be replaced by automated translations?

I fear that, with time, they will enhance this "service". Even though, human translation or edition would be never replaced.

I can not wait for your comments!!!

Regards

N.

Thanks Nicolas!
And what do you think? Is Google Translator just as good as human translators?

Hey PIM,

I don't think it is at a human level, but I can tell they are making a big effort on these automated translations. And probably with time, they'll make it and in that way, translations would only need to be edited and/or proofread...

What do you think about it ?
