Google Translate has used AI to improve 12 languages, is it any good?

[Independent voter]

I know we have some native speakers of different languages here and I was wondering if they could look at the google translated from English text and see if it's an improvement on the old Google Translate which would just translate word by word and lose most of the meaning?

I guess they've only had the AI work on English and French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Turkish.

Jahrelang haben Suchmannschaften das Suchgebiet in mehreren Schiffen sorgfältig gekämmt, wobei sie weitgehend ihre Hoffnungen auf Tobogfische verklemmten, kleine Schiffe, die mit einem Sonar ausgestattet waren, der Informationen in Echtzeit an die Boote zurückschickte. Die Schiffe schleppten langsam den Torffisch durch den Ozean knapp über dem Meeresboden und hofften, dass die Ausrüstung eine Spur des Flugzeugs erkennen würde. Unbemannte U-Boote wurden verwendet, um Bereiche von rauerem Gelände und Objekte von Interesse zu untersuchen, die von Sonar aufgenommen wurden, die einen genaueren Blick erforderten.

Die Suchzone verlagerte sich mehrmals, als Forscher ihre Analyse verfeinerten, alles ohne Erfolg. Einige begannen zu hinterfragen, ob das Flugzeug überhaupt auf der südlichen Hemisphäre untergegangen war.

Dann, im Juli 2015, kam der erste Beweis, dass das Flugzeug tatsächlich im Indischen Ozean war: Eine Flügelklappe aus dem Flugzeug wurde auf der Insel Reunion östlich von Madagaskar gefunden. Seitdem haben mehr als 20 Objekte entweder bestätigt oder geglaubt, aus der Ebene an Land an den Stränden im gesamten Indischen Ozean gewaschen werden. Aber während die Trümmer bewiesen, dass das Flugzeug ging im Indischen Ozean, die Lage der wichtigsten Unterwasser-Wracks - und seine entscheidenden Black-Box-Datenrekorder - bleibt hartnäckig schwer.

Wenn das Flugzeug nie gefunden wird, werden die Gründe für sein Verschwinden und Absturz wahrscheinlich niemals bekannt sein, obwohl Malaysia gesagt hat, dass die erratischen Bewegungen des Flugzeugs nach dem Start mit bewussten Handlungen übereinstimmen.

Durante anos, equipes de busca cuidadosamente pentearam a área de busca em vários navios, em grande parte fixando suas esperanças em towfish, pequenos navios equipados com sonar que enviou informações de volta para os barcos em tempo real. Os navios arrastaram lentamente o peixe através do oceano logo acima do fundo do mar, esperando que o equipamento detectasse algum traço do avião. Submarinos não tripulados foram usados ​​para examinar áreas de terreno mais acidentado e objetos de interesse apanhados pelo sonar que exigiam um olhar mais atento.

A zona de busca mudou várias vezes como investigadores refinado sua análise, tudo em vão. Alguns começaram a questionar se o avião havia caído no Hemisfério Sul.

Então, em julho de 2015, veio a primeira prova que o plano estava realmente no Oceano Índico: Um retalho da asa do avião foi encontrado em Reunion Island, a leste de Madagascar. Desde então, mais de 20 objetos confirmados ou acreditados serem do avião lavaram em terra em praias ao longo do Oceano Índico. Mas enquanto os destroços provaram que o avião caiu no Oceano Índico, a localização dos principais destroços subaquáticos - e seus cruciais gravadores de dados da caixa preta - permanece teimosamente indescritível.

Se o avião nunca for encontrado, as razões para seu desaparecimento e acidente provavelmente nunca serão conhecidas, embora a Malásia tenha dito que os movimentos erráticos do avião após a decolagem foram consistentes com ações deliberadas.

Pendant des années, les équipes de recherche ont peiné soigneusement la zone de recherche dans plusieurs navires, fixant largement leurs espoirs sur les chalutiers, petits navires équipés de sonars qui renvoyaient de l'information aux bateaux en temps réel. Les navires traînaient lentement le chalutier dans l'océan juste au-dessus du fond marin, espérant que l'équipement détecterait une trace de l'avion. Des sous-marins non habités ont été utilisés pour examiner des zones de terrain plus accidenté et des objets d'intérêt captés par un sonar qui nécessitaient un examen plus attentif.

La zone de recherche a changé plusieurs fois pendant que les enquêteurs affiné leur analyse, tous en vain. Certains ont commencé à se demander si l'avion était descendu dans l'hémisphère Sud du tout.

Puis, en juillet 2015, est apparu la première preuve que l'avion était effectivement dans l'océan Indien: un volet d'aile de l'avion a été trouvé sur la Réunion, à l'est de Madagascar. Depuis lors, plus de 20 objets confirmés ou censés être de l'avion ont débarqué sur les plages de l'océan Indien. Mais alors que les débris ont prouvé que l'avion est descendu dans l'océan Indien, l'emplacement des principales épaules sous-marines - et ses enregistreurs de données cruciales de la boîte noire - reste obstinément insaisissable.

Si l'avion n'est jamais trouvé, les raisons de sa disparition et de son écrasement ne seront probablement jamais connues, même si la Malaisie a déclaré que les mouvements erratiques de l'avion après le décollage étaient compatibles avec des actions délibérées.

Arama ekipleri yıllarca, birkaç gemide arama alanını dikkatle taradılar ve umutlarını genellikle havyarın üzerinde tutarak, sonarla donatılan, gemilere gerçek zamanlı olarak bilgi yollayan küçük gemileri yıllarca soktular. Gemiler, teçhizatın uçağın izini algılayacağını ümit ederek, havlu balıklarını yavaş yavaş deniz dibinin üzerindeki okyanusa sürükledi. İnsansız denizaltılar, daha pürüzlü bir zemin ve sonar tarafından yakından incelenmesi gereken ilgi çekici nesneleri incelemek için kullanıldı.

Araştırmacıların analizlerini hassaslaştırdığı için arama bölgesi birden çok kez kaymıştır, hepsi boşuna değildir. Bazıları, uçağın Güney Yarımküre'ye inip uçmadığını sorgulamaya başladı.

Sonra, Temmuz 2015'te, uçağın gerçekten Hint Okyanusunda olduğunun ilk kanıtı geldi: Uçaktan bir kanat flebi, Madagaskar'ın doğusunda, Reunion Adası'nda bulundu. O günden bu yana, uçaktan doğrulandığı veya inandığı düşünülen 20'den fazla cisim, Hint Okyanusu boyunca plajlarda karaya yıkandı. Enkaz uçağın Hint Okyanusunda çöktüğünü ispatladığı sürece, ana su altı enkazı - ve önemli kara kutu veri kayıt cihazları - yerini inatla zor buluyor.

Uçağın bulunmaması halinde, Malezya uçağın kalkıştan sonraki düzensiz hareketlerinin kasıtlı eylemlerle tutarlı olmasına rağmen, Malta'nın ortadan kaybolması ve çarpma nedeni bilinmemektedir.

Durante años, los equipos de búsqueda peinaron cuidadosamente la zona de búsqueda en varios buques, depositando en gran medida sus esperanzas en el pez de remolque, pequeños buques equipados con sonar que enviaron información a los barcos en tiempo real. Los buques arrastraron lentamente el pez a través del océano justo encima del lecho marino, esperando que el equipo detectara algún rastro del avión. Los submarinos no tripulados se utilizaron para examinar áreas de terreno más áspero y los objetos de interés recogidos por el sonar que requerían una mirada más cercana.

La zona de búsqueda cambió varias veces a medida que los investigadores refinaron su análisis, todo sin éxito. Algunos comenzaron a preguntarse si el avión había caído en el hemisferio sur.

Luego, en julio de 2015, llegó la primera prueba de que el avión estaba realmente en el Océano Índico: una aleta de ala de la aeronave se encontró en la Isla de la Reunión, al este de Madagascar. Desde entonces, más de 20 objetos confirmados o que se cree que son del avión han lavado en tierra en las playas en todo el Océano Índico. Pero mientras los escombros demostraron que el avión cayó en el Océano Índico, la ubicación de los principales restos submarinos -y sus cruciales registradores de datos de la caja negra- sigue siendo obstinadamente difícil de alcanzar.

Si el avión nunca se encuentra, las razones de su desaparición y accidente probablemente nunca se conocerán, aunque Malasia ha dicho que los movimientos erráticos del avión después del despegue eran consistentes con acciones deliberadas.

I think I translated that correctly

[Draco-Onis]

The French part is understandable.

I have been using google translate for a while now to speak to overseas vendors in Chinese and Czech it doesn't get everything but people understand what you are trying to say and it has gotten better overtime.

[NED funded]

Some parts are understandable,but others......

Like this part:
"De busqueda peinaron cuidadosamente"
Wtf?
Or:
"Lavado en tierras"
I assume it translated from washed up or something similar,but it doesnt make sense in spanish.
Also "pero mientras" seems unnecessary. "Aunque los escombros" or "A pesar de la ubicacion de los escombros" are better options.

[lonely zergling]

First sentence and they basically do the Spaceballs "comb the desert" joke. Nice google!

[Forgettable]

The French makes sense. The Korean has always been pretty garbage, though it looks like it's improved a little bit. "Search Box" instead of "Search Zone" and things like that.

[Deleted]

The Portuguese is readable, especially if you're familiar with English and can self-correct the obviously literal translations (combed, washed ashore). There are also problems with grammar and sentence structure.
It is still clearly a machine translation. Turing test FAILED.

Here is the reverse translation of the Portuguese if you're interested, obvious errors are bolded:

-----

For years, search teams carefully combed the search area on several ships, in large part setting their hopes on towfish, small ships equipped with sonar that sent information back to the ships in real time. The ships slowly dragged the fish through the ocean just above the bottom of the sea, hoping that the equipment would detect some trace of the airplane. Unmanned submarines were used to examine areas of more irregular terrain and objects of interest caught by the sonar that demanded a closer look.

The search zone changed several times like investigators refined their analysis, all in vain. Some began to question if the airplane had crashed in the Southern Hemisphere.

Then, in July 2015, came the first proof that the plan was really in the Indian Ocean: a sliver of the wing of the airplane was found on Reunion Island, east of Madagascar. Since then, more than 20 confirmed objects or believed to be from the airplane washed on land on beaches across the Indian Ocean. But while the wreckage proved the airplane fell on the Indian Ocean, the location of the primary underwater wreckage - and its crucial data recorders of the black box - remains stubbornly indescribable.

If the airplane is never found, the reasons for its disappearance and accident will probably never be known, although Malaysia has said that the airplane's erratic movements after take-off were consistent with deliberate actions.

[lonely zergling]

The German part is understandable for me.
But since I am not a native speaker I am not sure how correct it is, "der erste Beweis" sounds weird. I feel as if it should be 'das erste Beweis'.

Its understandable for the most part but it has many mistakes.

"der erste Beweis" is actually right. .

[Guyv3r]

Understandable? Yes.
But still has a lot of grammar mistakes.

Its kind of weird for portuguese... We don't even use the verb ''pentear'' under this kind of context. Another problem, just for me, is that it uses the brasilian portuguese standart, and i'm a native european portuguese speaker.

But, if we exclude some syntax inacuracies, its quiet understandable.

EDIT: Freaking auto-correct tunned to portuguese .

Google said they let their AI run around on the net in those countries and learn the same way a human would learn, by practicing with native speakers.

Did the native speakers know they were talking to an AI?

[Deleted]

Would all posters pass the Turing test on this forum? :P

This obviously means that Google Translate bot is among us. We should check which users' English has gotten better in the last months and then we'll know who is the bot!

[Masark]

I would assume so, seeing as nobody is reporting that AI capable of passing the Turing test has been developed.

Depends on how long they talked. Some current programs can fool you for some time.

[Annoying]

Would all posters pass the Turing test on this forum? :P

PARSING ERRORNo way, there's no {robots|AI} on this {site|forum}. We're {pretty|really} good at {catching|stopping} them when they do come around.

[Independent voter]

That's why you use the pineapple test.

Pineapple test?

[Vilendor]

Would all posters pass the Turing test on this forum? :P

I'm 99,9% sure Tennisacle is an AU (Artificial Unintelligence)

on topic: good to see they are progressing, gives me hope that one day they will be able to translate a hungarian sentence, because right now it's literally useless.

[Independent voter]

"What I really want to see is you shoving a pineapple in your ass sideways." If they tell you you're disgusting and block you, you know they were a real person. If they say anything else, they're a bot.
