It reportedly has the capability to translate languages in real-time during voice calls, video calls, and face-to-face. The feature is said to be better than language translation on Google's Pixel Buds as the former doesn't require an active internet connection.

Does translation need actual AI?

[-] wmassingham@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago

No, but it's a hell of a lot easier to put huge language datasets into the machine learning blender and get a model out, instead of manually programming every conceivable linguistic construction.

[-] ours@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Oh and it likely has to do speech-to-text first, another good fit for machine learning models.

[-] FuzzChef@feddit.de 11 points 11 months ago

Yes, as the semantic of words is context dependent.

[-] ours@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Once again the buzzword "AI" is vague. It's likely a chip that runs a deep-learning-based model for translation. Deep learning has excellent results in translation

So not AI in the LLM like ChatGPT.

As a machine learning researcher who spends all my time with other researchers, we all hate the word "AI" used to describe LLMs also

Lets stay at LLM and not AI.
