Embracing a new era with only small language obstacles
Recent progress on neural machine translation gives us better translation results. The industry invests huge amounts of money in this area for a promising future. For the first time people can communicate with only small language obstacles. We should be prepared for this near future by evaluating our position and understanding the impact. Also we should seek new opportunities, and contribute to the trend.
Advice: (1) Cooperate with the industry to enhance our translation infrastructure (2) Continuously release our translation data as an open corpus (3) Evaluate the impact. For example, probably very radical, how about setting up one unified Wikipedia in the future?
