Comment on AI Translations Are Adding ‘Hallucinations’ to Wikipedia Articles

  I mean, you can test it yourself if you speak more than one language. If you ask for a direct translation and stress not to add content or change the text, it will do a very good job. Translation is a use case where LLM really shine.

    Does it leave out hallucinations 100% of the time? Because otherwise why not use non-LLM translation services (which also alone don’t actually meet the standards for articles iirc).

      Whatever is used, I think nothing is going to be 100% and everything should be verified by a native speaker. It is Wikipedia afterall, not some blog.

      Non-LLM services are worse in my opinion but it probably depends on the language (LLMs probably struggle with certain languages as well).
