  1. Hey, just a heads up - noticed yesterday that Japanese translation on Google Translate suddenly makes much more sense than usual. Looking this up, turns out they switched to a new translation approach based on neural networks for French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Turkish, and other languages will follow. [Seems to work only on translate.google.com and their app for now, the “translate page” option in Chrome is still the usual mess]. Still far from perfect, but go give it a try!

      Which will lead to more professional translators unemployed. Thank you, Google, for making people believe machines can tell apart the subtleties of languages.

      Well I am planning on enrolling in Japanese studies, this will also get to me in a few years. But in many situations people don't care about subtleties, and anyway technology will run its course, it was only a matter of time until it got to intellectual labor. Not there yet, but I'm optimistic about advances in AI. No point pretending, I'm really cheering for Google.
