Multilingual AI + AI for Translation
Rafie is back! In this episode, we delve into Multilingual AI and AI-enabled translation services, machine learning translation techniques, and we discuss and compare translation tools such as Google AutoML, GPT-4, Marian NMT, DeepL, Welocalize, Llama 2, Mistral and BLOOM
Furthermore, we discuss the potential and impact of multilingual AI for global startups (the andreesen horowitz view is that the company of the future is 'default global').
06:00 - Machine Translation vs LLMs
16:10 - Where GPT-4 and LLMs perform badly
29:10 - Mistral Model Weights Leak
