Are there currently any methods or projects that make it possible to get localisation or internationalisation by throwing processing power at it?

Idk, something like get multiple different self-hosted automatic translation systems to translate a single string, and if they agree on translation, then that translation gets accepted.

I am so happy that I can talk about this now!!

I worked on – and am in the credits for – #CrimsonDesert! :D

This makes me unbelievably happy, not the least because it's unfortunately still common in the #gaming industry to not credit #localisation staff, especially freelancers.

And that means that despite my work experience in the #translation industry, this is actually my first ever properly credited role! I could not be happier today.

This was a collaboration with Context Heroes (contextheroes. com), who coordinated the full 7-language effort. Vojtech Schubert runs a tight ship -- the kind of setup where every translator has what they need before they start. The result is in the graphic.

새로 등장한 'vibe coded' AI 번역 도구가 비디오 게임 보존 커뮤니티 내에서 논쟁을 일으키고 있습니다. 자동 번역이 원작의 분위기·문체·문화적 맥락을 훼손할 수 있다는 우려와 보존·접근성 향상이라는 주장 사이에 찬반이 갈리고 있어 게임 로컬라이제이션과 보존 관행에 영향을 줄 가능성이 제기됩니다.

And then the AI contradicted itself in the final sentence, still mentioning "the Yamano Gakki building in the Ginza district of Tokyo" as "the most expensive location in the Netherlands. " This isn't a translation error. This is an AI rewriting reality.
