I have to wonder how many people celebrating AI translation also complain about "broken English" and how obvious it is something was Google translated from another language without a fluent English speaker involved to properly clean up the translation/grammar.

Because I bet it's a lot.

I know why execs are all for it—AI is the new buzzword and it lets them cut jobs thus "save" money and not have to worry about pesky labour laws when one employs humans—but everyone else?

There was some outcry when Crunchyroll fired many of their translators in favour of AI translation (with some people to "clean up the AI's work") but I can't help but think that was in part because it was Japanese-to-English and personally affected them. Same when Duolingo fired many of their translators in favour of LLM translation. Meanwhile companies are firing staff when it's English to another language and there's this idea that that's fine or not as big a deal because English is "easy" to translate and/or because people don't think of how it will impact people in non-English countries.

Also it doesn't affect native English speakers so it doesn't get much headway in the news cycle or online anyway because so much of the dominant media is from English-speaking countries and English-speakers dominate social media.

But different languages have different grammar structures that LLMs don't do, and I grew up on "jokes" about people speaking in "broken English" and mocking people who use the wrong word when it was clearly a literal translation but the meaning was obvious long before LLMs were a thing, too. In fact, the specific way a character spoke broken English has been a way to denote their native tongue for decades, usually in a racist way.

Then Google translate came out and "Google-translated English" became an insult for people and criticism of companies because it was clearly wonky to native speakers. Even now, LLMs—which are heavily trained on English compared to other languages—don't have a natural output so native English speakers can clock LLM-generated text if it's longer than a sentence or two.

But, for whatever reason, it's not seen as a problem when it goes the other way because fuck non-English readers or people who want to read in their native tongue I guess.

I think I finally understand what’s at the root of all my weird little problems and why I have such a hard time connecting with my body.

I do so much work to read and be smart as a defensive mechanism because I’m a really kind caring person and that makes me a little naive and I look a lot younger than I am so I feel like people think I’m easy to manipulate.

But then there’s a part of me that feels like it’s not safe to be smart, and that sounds so weird and counterintuitive but I realized it’s because I’m terrified of being seen.

Like if I’m smart I’m going to have to act on it and challenge people and that’ll bring attention on me that I don’t want to deal with so I’ll continue to be the kind naive nice girl even if people are mistreating me because it’s not safe to be seen it’s not safe to be smart.

Like my body will not use basic protection methods like setting boundaries, saying no or standing up for myself because that requires me to get over that fear of being seen. Like my body fears being seen more than it fears being mistreated and that’s kind of terrifying.

i honestly don't understand tech enthusiasts like why on earth would you want your front door lock linked to your phone. it doesn't even save time like having to get your phone and open an app and press a button would take basically the same time as manually unlocking the door with a key, so what's the point??? looking cool?? getting locked outside when the internet doesn't work or the app crashes?????

Three Tips to Prevent Lock Tampering

To stop these burglary techniques and provide you some peace of mind, there are several ways to fortify the security of your locks and your house.

Put in smart locks.

Another excellent option for increasing lock security and thwarting burglary attempts is smart locks. On the residential property security sector, they are gradually gaining traction.

Boost the security system of your house.

Increasing the general security of your home is another approach to keep a thief from ever trying to enter it. If a burglar notices additional security features like an alarm system, cove security cameras, or outdoor illumination, they will probably pass past your house.

Install high security locks with anti-snap technology.

A simple and affordable method of enhancing your home's security is to replace your locks with ones that resist snapping. Give our locksmiths a call at 0808 164 2928 if you require anti-snap lock installation done by highly skilled and effective technicians.

Maintaining the safety and security of your house is essential to ensuring your personal safety and security.

How Could Artificial Intelligence Affect Home Automation and Security?

It's likely that you have already utilized artificial intelligence (AI) in your house if you have an iPhone® or Netflix® account. Netflix develops original episodes based on data collected and employs algorithms to anticipate which shows you would like. Siri® on your iPhone utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) to comprehend spoken language and reply to instructions or queries, but AI is capable of far more than just "Call Mom - mobile."

AI is developing quickly and starting to have a bigger impact on automation and home security. Let's explore how it could affect you and your family soon.

Home Automation Home automation features like turning on your lights or thermostat when your smartphone passes a virtual boundary are already possible thanks to geofencing technology. However, AI offers a house the chance to learn more than just settings. For instance, voice commands or gestures detected by ceiling cameras may cause your house to turn on the lights automatically.

Home Safety Another area that is susceptible to change is home security. For the 214 million Facebook users in the United States alone, Facebook employs AI in the form of facial recognition to tag images of friends with an accuracy rate of 97 percent. The same deep learning might be used in home security systems to monitor visitors' arrivals and departures.

A family's regular routine may be learned by AI-powered home security systems, which can then recognize when an occurrence looks unexpected. As a result of fewer false alerts, this is advantageous for families with lots of visitors or frequent travel. Because people have a limited attention span compared to technology, which is programmed to remain always vigilant, AI also provides homes with peace of mind.

Getting Past Fears While using these cutting-edge gadgets might be advantageous, some homeowners worry about turning technology inward. Alexa and other AI-enhanced technologies are always listening and observing. The reason for the delayed uptake of these prospective prospects is typically the fear of hackers getting into this technology to steal private information and infringe privacy.

It's critical to prioritize safety and work with reputable suppliers as AI enters households. During a presentation, one AI system mistakenly identified shirt wrinkles as a trustworthy face to enter a house. You can make sure that you utilize Cove Smart by reading reviews, consulting with a skilled installation, and testing products before purchase.

5 Things Homeowner Associations Don't Tell You

Homeowners associations (HOAs) serve to maintain a neighborhood's aesthetic homogeneity and to defend the property rights of its homeowners. HOAs generally perform a good job, but because their rules and restrictions are set and enforced by a group of neighbors, they can go too far and cause problems for some residents.

Parking constraints. The ways and places where residents can park their cars are sometimes restricted by HOAs. The HOA might even have rules on what kind of car you can leave in your driveway, prohibiting things like ATVs or motor homes that might be considered unsightly.

Fence prohibitions. In housing projects where unobstructed vistas of wide-open lawns are desired, no-fence regulations are typical. Because most municipal construction requirements demand that swimming pools be enclosed by a secured fence for safety reasons, no-fence laws may also preclude a homeowner from creating a backyard pool.

Forced sales. The laws in your state will determine whether the HOA can do this and the procedure the board must follow, but it's possible that you could lose your home for anything as simple as skipping a few dues payments. As an alternative, the board may put a lien on your house for the amount you owe, which will prevent you from selling it until the lien is satisfied.

Laws vary by state. Since many homeowners are unaware of the regulations in their state, they may be expending time, energy, and money to abide by restrictions that the HOA is unable to enforce. Check out this page to see the laws that are particular to your state if you're unsure about the legality of a HOA rule.

Pet restrictions. In townhouse developments and other neighborhoods where properties are close together and fences are not allowed, pet restrictions are typical. You may be able to keep a cat or other indoor pet if your HOA permits it. No matter where you reside, make sure to install cove security systems to protect your home and loved ones.
