Translating Latin demonology manuals with GPT-4 and Claude
"It's clear that GPT-4 and Claude are skilled translators" on what basis? What makes a predictor LLM better at translating Latin than a system trained specifically for translation?<p>I'm sure they can do a decent job but it's weird to me that someone would leap to GPT-style tech despite its known tendency to hallucinate/make stuff up instead of translation-oriented tools like DeepL or Google Translate (I say this as someone who despises both of those tools due to their quality issues)<p>I can't imagine there are vast swaths of Latin in GPT's training set.
