What is AI powered translation?

The Importance of Choosing the Right Solution

When it comes to translation, not all algorithms are created equal. Versatik employs state-of-the-art machine translation engines that are powered by advanced neural networks. These algorithms are capable of self-training through deep learning techniques, ensuring that the translations are not just accurate but also contextually relevant. This is a significant leap from traditional rule-based and statistical machine translation engines, which either rely on linguistic rules or a large bilingual corpus.

What is machine translation

Machine Translation (MT) is a technology that relies on pattern recognition in large bilingual datasets to generate translations. It’s a quick and cost-effective solution, particularly useful for translating standard industry terminology. However, MT has its limitations, such as struggling with complex content, lacking contextual understanding, and providing inconsistent translations. These drawbacks are particularly noticeable in less commonly spoken languages or unique language pairs.

  • MT Advantages: Speed, cost-effectiveness, and wide availability.
  • MT Disadvantages: Struggles with complex content, lacks contextual understanding, and may be inconsistent.
  • Some solutions: Google Translate and DeepL

The Evolution of Generative AI in Translation

Generative AI for translation, as offered by Versatik, transcends the capabilities of traditional MT. Leveraging advanced techniques like zero-shot translation, our AI models can translate between languages they haven’t been explicitly trained on. This adaptability allows for more nuanced, contextually appropriate translations, even in specialized fields like healthcare or law.

  • Generative AI Advantages: Learns and evolves, processes complex language, provides contextual translations, and offers better translation memory. It’s also more cost-effective in the long run for large-scale translation needs.
  • Generative AI Disadvantages: May struggle with language exceptions and specialized fields, and could raise privacy concerns.
  • Some solutions: GPT4 or Meta Seamless M4 MT

 

The Symbiotic Relationship Between Human and AI Translation at Versatik

While AI translation technologies, like those offered by Versatik, are revolutionizing the translation landscape, the role of human translators remains indispensable. AI excels at automating large-scale, repetitive tasks and can even handle nuanced language to a certain extent. However, it can’t replace the human touch needed for true localization and cultural sensitivity.

At Versatik, we see AI not as a replacement but as an enhancement to human translation efforts. Our AI tools offer suggestions and edits, acting as a collaborative partner to human linguists. These tools can also provide valuable metrics that assess the quality of translations, offering insights that are invaluable for refining and improving content. Human translators, in turn, can focus on more complex aspects of translation and localization, bringing cultural and contextual understanding that AI currently can’t replicate. They can also review and fine-tune AI-generated translations, ensuring the highest quality and most contextually appropriate output. In summary, Versatik believes in harnessing the strengths of both AI and human expertise to provide the most accurate, culturally sensitive, and cost-effective translation services. It’s not a question of AI vs. Human but rather AI with Human that leads to the best translation outcomes.

The importance of glossaries in AI translation

Versatik understands that every industry has its jargon and terminology. That’s why we emphasize the importance of creating clearly defined glossaries or terminology lists before initiating the translation process. This ensures that the translations are not just accurate but also consistent across different projects. It’s a quality-at-source approach that not only enhances the translation but also reduces costs.

Which LLM model can we use in AI translation

When considering which LLM (Large Language Model) to use as your translation AI engine, it’s essential to weigh various factors and options available in the market. With a plethora of solutions to choose from, including established models like GPT-4, Gemini, and Claude AI, as well as newer entrants like Mistral AI, the decision can be daunting. Each model offers its own set of features, strengths, and weaknesses, making it crucial to assess your specific translation needs and preferences. At the time of writing, there may not be readily available benchmarks to compare these models comprehensively, but it’s important to note that the landscape is evolving rapidly. As more data and evaluations become available, staying updated on the latest advancements and performance metrics will be key in making an informed decision regarding the most suitable translation AI engine for your requirements.

 

  • GPT-4 and ChatGPT: GPT-4 Turbo exhibits notable performance variations when compared to GPT-3.5 Turbo and Gemini Pro. Particularly noteworthy is the significant enhancement demonstrated by GPT-4 Turbo for low-resource languages, while performance remained largely similar across the large language models (LLMs) for high-resource languages.
  • Google Gemini: In a recent paper published on December 18, 2023, by researchers Syeda Nahida Akter, Zichun Yu, Aashiq Muhamed, Tianyue Ou, Alex Bäuerle, Ángel Alexander Cabrera, Krish Dholakia, Chenyan Xiong, and Graham Neubig from Carnegie Mellon University and BerriAI, it was demonstrated that Gemini Pro surpassed both GPT-3.5 Turbo and GPT-4 Turbo in five out of 20 languages, achieving top performance in three languages. However, the study revealed a propensity for Gemini Pro to withhold responses in scenarios where confidence was lower, observed across approximately 10 language pairs. The researchers attributed Gemini Pro’s relatively lower performance in certain languages to this observed tendency.
  • Claude 3: Although it is still in its early stages, the expectations surrounding Claude 3 are notably high. Particularly, Claude 3 Opus has achieved a significant milestone by nearly flawlessly translating Parthian, an ancient language that has been dormant for approximately 1,500 years. Parthian, a northwestern Iranian language, presents a unique challenge due to its antiquity, yet the presence of Parthian texts online has provided some familiarity to large language models (LLMs). However, Opus stands out as the first model capable of truly translating Parthian, surpassing the capabilities of both Sonnet and GPT-4. It’s important to note that this achievement occurred without in-context learning. Further tests with various Parthian texts have confirmed Opus’s remarkable ability, achieving levels of accuracy that GPT-4 could not match.
  • Mistral AI: In our globalized world, communication across languages is crucial. Mistral AI can be useful in bridging communication gaps across different languages, making them invaluable tools in global business operations.
