I think a lot of nuance will be lost, also having to translate it yourself helps learning the new language, which we should support, because not knowing another language is what holds a lot of people back in developing countries. Automatically translating is pampering the people but not for their good in the long term. Translating can be embedded and done by clicking a translate button as on other social media already. This way people at least also read the original language still, otherwise they will not get into contact anymore with foreign languages, which is bad for their development.

Automatically translating is as dumb as dubbing English movies and series. Something which has set back a lot of people in Latin America. I am sure if not all the movies and series on tv where dubbed there, people would all speak English already and had more international job opportunities. So at first sight, automatically translating looks like a good idea, but the long term effects are detrimental.

As Bitcoiners we should be about empowering and helping people to learn another language, not pampering them with automatic translations. Pampering is what bad governments do to control people.

Only a good idea if the original is also preserved and always shown, only showing the translation automatically would be detrimental for language development. Something that is really needed in for example LatAm, where all English movies and series are dubbed, which led to very few people speaking English well, which takes away international and better paid opportunities.

Amethyst already does this. I had a conversation in English with the other person in Spanish, and I noticed the different language only when looking at it in another client. Magic.

Are you gonna trust the AI translations? Stupid question, of course we will all do...
