Machine Translation vs. Human Translation

 

Machine Translation vs. Human Translation

Machine translation is growing both in terms of its quality as well as use by customers. Although the quality of machine translation improves with advancements in artificial intelligence, it is clear that it does not match the complexity of human thinking and lacks the ability to discern idiomatic, cultural and emotional nuances.

What is Machine Translation?

Machine translation (MT) is translation by a machine. Translation applications such as Google Translate and Babelfish use artificial intelligence (AI) to convert in a given language to other languages.

AI uses combinations of dictionaries (embedded memory), algorithms and statistical methods. Rules of syntax that are coded into the system help identify the source and generate the target sentences.
