Ugh, why does this poo poo always have to be couched in "Look what a robot made" these days? People should just own the unfunny poo poo they made up themselves. If it wasn't funny enough for the person themselves to say they made it, it's not going to be any funnier if they pretend the compootorz made it.

There's no actual Aramaic translator that can do that automatically, so here's Japanese and back:

quote:

Someone once said the world is going to roll me
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed
She was a little ridiculous with her finger and thumb
In the form of "L" on her forehead

Well the year has come, they won't stop coming
I followed the rules and started running
Living for fun didn't make sense
Your brain will be smarter, but your head will be stupid
Things to do and see
So what's wrong with taking a backstreet?
I don't know if I won't go
If it doesn't shine, it won't shine

Hey, you are an all-star, start the game and play
Hey, you are a rock star, start a show and get rewards
And everything that shines is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

Huh. Google Translate has gotten really good.

As a speech and language technology AI researcher, that poo poo pisses me off more than anyone, but nothing about the post says it was translated back and forth by a robot, and in fact it wasn't. It was hand-translated to Aramaic and back by an actual person.

But also for the love of god I wish people would stop posting stupid "written by a computer" things. They are not real and are just a big return of "random" humor, which is not, and never has been, funny.

Fair enough.

Although maybe makes it worse, since it was translated into Aramaic, an ancient language, and then it retranslated back and yet it sounds like a dandy from 1835.

Why wouldn't it be the exact same thing when translated back to English?

An important part of non-literal translations is understanding the intent behind the words.

Some words don't have an exact equivalent. Like the electric brain or w/e computer translates to in Chinese.

different grammar rules - english lacks similar, baked-in grammar for certain aramaic grammatical cases, aramaic verbs also can specify tense, mood and voice while aramaic nouns can also be declared as existing in one of three states ... none of these examples have perfect equivalents in english and there's a ton of little differences like that between these two languages

when you unpack a language that conveys information differently you end up with really wordy translations if you're trying to reproduce all the content

A man becomes preeminent, he's expected to have enthusiasms.

Enthusiasms, enthusiasms...
don't know if this is the right place to ask but I don't know where else to ask

I was looking for a machine learning thing that was going around (at least I think it was neural network stuff)

it was basically a puddle of generated faces, constantly changing and morphing in a fluid. It was NOT
https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/ it was a video/short animation, not static images

Sort of like this but in color and no real gaps between the people's faces that I remember. Also the faces were men/women too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5h4R959O0cY

I want to say it was passed around within the last 2-3 years

anyone know what I'm talking about?

reminded me of the doom face wall
