Related study on agentic translation being used to improve traditional MT systems

[enismaxim1]

If agentic translations can generate better results than traditional architectures (such as an end-to-end transformer that inputs a text and directly outputs a translation) -- which are often faster/cheaper to run than our approach here -- this also provides a mechanism to automatically generate training data (parallel text corpora) that can be used to further train and improve traditional algorithms. (See also this article in The Batch on using LLMs to generate training data.)

For those interested in this idea, a collaborator and I wrote a paper in April called "From LLM to NMT" demonstrating the viability of this approach. It turns out Claude 3 Opus is already a state-of-the-art LLM agent in machine translation in various languages. We then use the LLM to generate train-data for Yoruba-English translation and create a state-of-the-art translation system.

good job！
