"Naver launches its official version of translation service, Papago" #Hoyatag

네이버 '파파고', 정식 서비스 오픈... Translating from one language to another is quite a painstaking job. But now it may take a little less effort,... as Korea's biggest web portal, Naver has launched a new software that will make the translation process smoother and more accurate. Our Won Jung-hwan has this story. When it comes to translating from one language to another, computer software is undeniably faster than humans. But the translations it produces can be awkward at best and, sometimes, completely incomprehensible,... That is why programmers and developers are taking strides to develop software that can overcome these limitations. "This speedy and convenient software is called 'Papago'... Korean tech giant Naver officially launched its latest translation service last week, about a year after of its trial service came online". This latest version of Papago has not only increased its character limit to 5,000, but also has an enhanced Neural Machine Translation service. Whereas previous systems translated sentences word-by-word, this new neural technology looks at the word in context, using the words around it to help with the translation. In addition, the latest system learns from its mistakes... so the more you use it, the smarter the translations get. "There are a lot of good databases to learn, and it is our goal to steadily expand this database within the AI translation. Since there is a lot of previous data and advanced equipment for machine translation, I expect that machine translators can be more accurate than the ordinary human standard in the next eight years." Rapidly improving AI technology is revolutionizing computer-based translation systems. However, translation requires more than just advanced technology. Experts say such skills still require human intuition and cultural understanding as well as contextual information, so it'll be a while before we see AI replace human interpreters and translators completely.
