And if I translate it back to English I get this…

The Turing Test has not yet been adopted.

A promise of AI all these years has viable machine translation. Has not happened yet and I do not see it come about anytime soon.

Thank God, or my last line of employment would be out the window.

Try copying this simple, easy to understand (in humans) message in Google Translations and get the “German” version. Bring it back here and I’ll show you a dozen ways AI / machine translation can comment on the screw and Jump the Shark pooch on a four-paragraph.

Consider that was twice translated that’s pretty impressive. Except for “the screw and jump the shark pooch” part. And “in humans” Also “Adopted” rather than “completed”

Also “has viable machine translation” rather than “of viable” but still its remarkably comprehendable for the most part….
