Somehow this shows the deep relationship between language and mathematics. And it doesn't matter the language! Maybe our brains too are performing mathematical computations when they generate and understand language expressions... Artificial intelligence is exposing in data structures and silicon how our mind works...

@EduardoEscarez

13 күн бұрын

That's the trick of AI models, reducing the analog processes of our brain to a multiplication matrix a digital chip can handle, so we can have a glance to the structures we develop in language. And is not only in humans, there is research trying to the same with other animals like whales, using AI to determine their speech structures and trying to find some correlation with human speech. Maybe, just maybe, one day we could have an universal translator, a system that with enough data can translate the structures from and to any language.

So even if two languages are more closely related to each other than to english, it still goes through english? It's also surprising how good GPT is at translation considering it wasn't made for it.

Amazing how far technology has come

Very thorough explanation

Dang that is fascinating!

Massive respect and shout out to all the Developers who made this possible ❤

What a coincidence the question of how Google translate works popped into my head just now and then you uploaded only a few hours ago

completely changed the world 🥰

Mathematics is the language of nature.

having visuals to enhance the basic explanations makes connecting the dots between concepts so much easier. i knew vectors and matrices were involved in machine learning... somehow, but the way this video presented the topic helped me make the connection of what exact role they have

Good topic ,👍

Wonderful video.

The evolution of Google Translate into a neural network-driven tool is a remarkable achievement in technology! Leveraging transformers and OCR not only improves language processing capabilities but also bridges communication gaps globally, enhancing cross-cultural interactions and business operations.

Interesting tech behind the best app that Google ever made 😊😊

About 10 years ago when I first used Google Translate in highschool, it churned out an absolute mess of word-by-word translation which took me more time to rephrase than actually translating the materials myself. So I never used Google Translate again. Until about just a few years ago I started using again, and was amazed at how accurate and well-phrases the translation had become. Now finally someone explains how it happened. Fascinating!

What Google translate could use, is a way to specify the part-of-speech of the word you intend to translate. Many times, a word could be both a noun and a verb in English. It may not change form in English, but you'd like it to change to the desired form in the destination language.

I like that we are moving on from asking experts for their input to asking experts how they think. The general way I could explain to someone how I translate between my two fluent languages is basically the same as stated in the video, I know the context or the intent of the phrase therefore I know the equivalent in both languages. I don't have to translate in my head when using either languages (french and english) I just know.

2:55 you've incorrectly multiplied matrices though...

I used it extensively while repairing French Swiss instruments. New parts would come with French instructions. It wasnt perfect, but I got by. I mean they were only measuring construction materials, what harm could it do if not translated well?

They have been at it since two decades

3:40 looks like you haven't held a sharpie before.

You won't be let to have that vacation to test that technology.

Linear Algebra (what was discussed in the video) is easier to understand than most highschool math topics if you're able to visualize what it's doing. The KZread channel 3 Blue 1 Brown has a great series called "The Essence of Linear Algebra" that gives a lot of intuition for how it works. Like the other guy said most programming jobs do not require a good understanding of maths, but I would add that if you want to be an above average programmer then a good understanding of maths is more important than a good understanding of the programming language that you're using. You can always go into web development. Web developers are some of the most brain dead people I know. Anyone can do that.

Google translates focus on number of languages and OCR in picture has resulted in massive suffering of the quality of its translation.

I cannot imagine how useless this app is to people who ar typing in. OCR translation is up but voice recognition and text inout translation needs a savior.
