AI and Wikipedia how weak languages ​​have sent to a punishment spiral

by SkillAiNest

Evala, who now works as a professional translator between English and Egbo, said the most damaging users are inexperienced and view AI’s translation as a way to accelerate Egbo Wikipedia’s profile. She often feels the need to describe herself on the online edit-e-tunes that she manages, or more than the e-mail to the affected editors, that the results can be quite the opposite, and pushes users: “You will be discouraged and you will not want to visit it now.”

These concerns are echoed by Noah Halloweo Suleiman, who is an assistant professor of air language at Hawaii University. He reported that about 35 % of the words on some pages in Hawaii Wikipedia are incomprehensible. He says, “If this is the air that is online, it will do more harm than anything.”

Hawaii, which was tampering with the brink of anonymity decades ago, is undergoing a rehabilitation effort, headed by indigenous workers and experts. Wikipedia Halloweo is bothering Solomon by looking at such poor air on such a widely used platform.

“It’s painful, because it reminds us all the time that our culture and language are allocated.” “We’re fighting teeth and nail in a sharp climb to restore the tongue. It is not easy, and it may include extra barriers. People are thinking that this is a proper representation of the air language.”

The consequences of all these Wikipedia errors can be rapidly clear. The AI ​​translator, who has undoubtedly put these pages in their training data, is now providing aid in production, for example, the error -born books that aims to diverse language learners as is the same as Incatte. And the curryFor, for, for,. Local Languages ​​spoken in Canada, and Manx, a small seattle language, spoken on the Oil of Man. Many of them are popting up on Amazon for sale. “This was just a complete nonsense,” said Richard Compton, a linguist at the University of Quebec University of Montreal, which he reviewed, which intended to become a book of introductory phrase for Incatate.

Instead of making minority languages ​​more accessible, the AI ​​is now creating an expansive mine field to visit students and speakers in these languages. Kampton says, “This is a slap on the face. It is worried that the younger generations in Canada are hoping to learn languages ​​in communities who have fought against the discrimination against discrimination to approve their heritage, they can make a book on Amazon,” says Kampton. Say

A race against time

According to UNESCO, one language is eliminated every two weeks. But whether the Wikipedia Foundation, which runs Wikipedia, has the responsibility on the languages ​​used on its platform that this is an open question. When I spoke to Rani Bhattacharji, a senior director of the Foundation, he said it was up to individual communities to make decisions about what material they want to have on their Wikipedia. “Finally, the responsibility is really with the community to see if there is no breakdown or unwanted activity, whether it is a machine translated or from other sources,” he said. Generally, Bhattacharji added, the edition was considered only if a specific complaint was raised about them.

But if there is no active community, how can the edition be fixed or even the complaint can be raised?
