Machine Translation and AI FAQs

What is machine translation?

+

Machine translation is the automated process of translating text or content from one language to another using computer algorithms and artificial intelligence. It provides a quick and cost-effective way to bridge language barriers.


How accurate is machine translation compared to human translation?

+

Accuracy varies based on the language pair and complexity of the content. That said, machine translation has improved significantly with advancements in neural machine translation (NMT) and natural language processing (NLP). While it can produce accurate translations for many languages and content types, it may still lack the nuanced understanding and cultural context that human translators provide.


What are the advantages of using machine translation services?

+

Machine translation offers several advantages, including speed and cost-efficiency. It can quickly translate large volumes of text, making it suitable for content like user-generated reviews or technical documentation.


How should a business decide when to use machine translation vs. human translation?

+

Machine translation is ideal for content that requires quick turnaround, such as customer support inquiries or internal documents. However, for sensitive, high-stakes, or culturally nuanced content like legal documents, marketing materials, or creative writing, human translation is often preferred for its accuracy, consistency of voice and cultural sensitivity.


Can machine translation be customized for specific industries or terminology?

+

Yes, machine translation can be customized through a process called domain-specific training. This involves training the machine translation engine on industry or brand specific data and terminology. Customization is beneficial for industries like healthcare, finance, marketing and legal, where precision, consistency and domain knowledge are critical. Keep in mind that the effectiveness of machine translation can vary depending on the quality of the technology and the complexity of the content, so choosing the right approach should be based on the specific needs of your translation project.


What machine translation software would you recommend for my business?

+

ULG offers end-to-end translation management technology in its OctaveTMS suite. However, as opposed to other one-size-fits-all approaches, ULG will collaborate closely with your business to determine what the best translation technology and workflows are for your business, based on a number of factors.
