Anonymous asked:
have you ever used chatGPT or other AI chatbot to translate some hard and/or complicated sentences?
No. I figure it's not worth bothering when it comes to pornographic content, because there's an ever-evolving cat-and-mouse game to try and trick the AI into disabling its "safety" filters, and I don't care to keep up with that. I've used Copilot to try more nuanced searches when traditional searches fail, but even then, I've had cases where it just makes stuff up, and then, when I ask for a source, it invents fake characters from major anime series.
When I was first testing out the possibility of doing RPGX stories, I did a test run of Chapter 20 (since I didn't know exactly how far into the story they would be going before they stopped). There's a line in there which lists ten martial arts terms for weak spots in the human body. It took a lot of searching and cross-referencing to figure out what they all meant, and how to phrase them in English. And then, it occurred to me to wonder how well an AI would do. So I fed the whole line into one, and asked it to translate each of the terms. It recognized that they were all martial arts weak spots, but then told me that they were impossible to translate, and transliterated them instead.
So whereas I had to spend an hour and a half searching for these terms to laboriously translate them one by one, through the magic of technology, the AI instantly analyzed my request, checked it against its databanks, and, in a state-of-the-art display of realistic human personality, was too lazy to do anything about it. This is the kind of next-level intelligence that is going to send us rocketing into the world of transhumanism, and blur the line between man and machine. Just wait until we introduce it to the concept of hammocks.
