      AI is waaaay better for English to Chinese translation, I can tell you that from experience in my personal life.

      There’s a lot of nuance to translation, especially for languages with completely different structures.

      Not seeing the point of everything you’ve never seen is a good way to get poked in the eyes my friend.

      Regardless of capability a human will have a bias. So maybe have multiple humans of varying beliefs and then have the AI train to remove the bias?
