Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: In favor of an AI-powered translation button on the EA Forum, published by Alix Pham on June 7, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum.
It'd be great if anyone landing on the forum could have the opportunity to seamlessly translate its content into their language with the click of a button.
A bit like Wikipedia, but for all languages, and powered by AI; a bit like copy-pasting the URL into Google Translate, but without copy-pasting, and with better translation.
I don't know to what extent it's easy to implement into the Forum, but I would have expected it wouldn't be much more complicated than the AI-generated readings of the posts. But I could be wrong about this, of course.
