How long until we can have realtime translations so I can talk to someone in China on the phone and I hear English & they hear Chinese? That is one of my scifi dreams. Any open source projects working on this atm?
How could that ever work with languages that have different noun/verb/idea ordering?
Intent translation generally requires you to say your sentence in your language, then the translator adds/removes words and can swap order of stuff around.
You’d expect some delay to handle that, but it’s all taken care of with minimal delays. Have a UI that indicates it’s waiting for the translation or something. I’m sure someone can figure out a nice UX.
