#24: What Makes Machine Translation Work? - Olga Beregovaya
24 juni 2025 · 57 min
Boost your CRM with Salesforce – tdv.co/sf Lees meer
In this episode of The Deep View Conversations, we explore the world of machine translation and artificial intelligence with Olga Beregovaya — Smartling’s VP of Machine Translation and Artificial Intelligence. Olga takes us through the evolution of machine translation, from rule-based systems to statistical models to today’s neural networks and large language models.
She sheds light on how translation has shifted from being a purely linguistic endeavor to one that now sits at the intersection of data science, AI, and human creativity. We dive into hallucinations, under-resourced languages, the rise of synthetic data, and what it truly means to maintain quality in a multilingual world. If you've ever wondered what makes AI translation tick — and where it's going — this is the episode for you.
