Meta's brilliant AI translation at work. I rated the translation 1 star, only because I couldn't rate it lower than that. But this is awful. Hazards of training your models on content they allow posted on Meta...

Just received an email from that agency advising they were lowering the rates for all vendors. They know most can't fight back.

I guess their own clients (global brands) will keep paying the same prices and expecting premium translation. Unfortunately, they'll just get poorly edited AI translation.
I often work for a translation agency with their own translation tool that sometimes "locks" strings that have already be translated. They are not paid, but you can display them for context. You can also see the full history: when it was translated, who worked on it, etc.

It often causes issues ⤵️

C'est l'anniversaire de mon grand, je suis censée faire un gâteau et au lieu de ça, je suis en train de pleurer dans le fauteuil parce qu'il ne recevra plus de message de sa marraine. Qu'elle ne mettra plus de likes sur les photos que je partagerai dans le groupe familial. Elle me manque tellement.

La vie peut être bien cruelle. Un jour, tu envoies une vidéo de tes enfants à ta sœur pour son anniversaire. Et exactement une semaine après, tu suis son cercueil en tenant tes enfants par la main.

Ne m'envoyez pas de condoléances. J'en ai assez.

Mais profitez du temps passé avec vos proches ❤️
