If AI truly wanted to excel in the world of communication, and many more areas, then engineers should’ve devoted all of their time into translating langauges. Because Learning a new language is fucking hard, it’s difficult because you have to not only understand different forms of grammar but also sentence structure, dialect, how to articulate sentences and phrases automatically from one another.

Some words andhow they are spelled could mean from a different mark and abrasion to a whole different meaning and to a whole different context.

Perfect Example; Japanese Katakana is IMMENSELY different than Kanji and Hiragana, yes they do mean similar but if you fucking translate it to english, there’s no ACTUAL ONE TO ONE EQUIVALENT.

Yoroshiku onegaishimasu CAN mean: Nice to meet you, I’m counting on you, pelase take care of me, thanks in advance or I appreciate your cooperation.

It can literally mean several tons of things. But meanwhile English; there’s nothing we can say that can equal to that besides those translations. There’s no blanket words for context situations.

Another example; German gives us Schadenfreude: pleasure at someone else’s misofrtune, but we borrow the word because translating it into English takes a whole ass sentence.

Many different words in general arabic, mandarin, navajo, finnish, turkish each language encodes how we see things completely different. But what did we do with a tool that can make our lives easier?

We obsess over AI making Art, Music, and Videos. Meanwhile, the crux of the barrier of one of the hardest things in our society and existence is literally right there. God what a waste.
