Do you get your water from a small or a big font? 🤔

AI Interpreter Over-Learns Shakespeare, Translates Greeting to PM as 'My Lord, This Throne I Offer,' Actor Temporarily Certified as King

An AI interpreter used by a visiting Hollywood star was found to have deep-learned too much Shakespeare. A simple 'hello' was majestically translated as 'O my eternal king, I offer thee this throne,' causing the honor guard to kneel.

Bad translations can be poetry.

I bought this sensational attempt at writing ‘Stanley Kubrick’s ‘A Clockwork Orange’ on a T-shirt in Asia in 2003.

For anyone who can speak #Chinese #ChineseLanguage #Mandarin ... having an issue with a poor translation.
ANY idea what "Left Peptide" and "Right Peptide" means in the context of a car headunit / radio?

As far as I can tell, it has something to do with what side the steering wheel is on I think, or which side the driver sits at, or something about the driver's door.
I can't tell what it actually changes though.
