Twitter translate tweet function not working, issue being looked into - PiunikaWeb - Translation

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on Feb. 19, 2022) follows:

Twitter is one of the most popular social networks available. The concept of Twitter is a microblogging platform for short and concise posts with limited characters.

Like other social networks, Twitter allows you to add images or videos to your posts. However, the distinguishing feature of Twitter is the length of the posts (also called ‘tweets’).

Twitter also offers some useful tools to enhance the accessibility of the service. One of these tools is the translation of tweets, but the feature is not working properly for some users according to reports.

Twitter translate function not working issue

Normally, to translate a tweet, users only have to select the translation option that is included in each post written in a language other than the default selection.

However, some users are facing issues where the Twitter translate button is not working or does not appear on tweets (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14).

@TwitterSupport Hey, today out of nowhere my account can no longer translate tweets, while my other account still can, I have tried uninstalling and re-installing and even checked to see if an option had been changed, but I haven’t been able to fix it, please help.

@TwitterSupport what has happened to the TRANSLATE TWEET option?!….NOT HAPPY!!!! 98% OF THE PEOPLE I FOLLOW REQUIRE A TRANSLATION OF TWEETS.

The multiple reports on the matter also suggest that this is not an issue that happens to everyone. It seems that it appears randomly in some Twitter accounts without apparent explanation.

Um @TwitterSupport where is the translate tweet button? I use it approximately 57898643 times a day and I need it back please.

@Twitter @TwitterSupport why can’t I translate a tweet? The button to translate a tweet is not available for me. Thank you.

Some users suggest that the Twitter translate issue started from the most recent update of the app. However, this is yet to be confirmed.

The Twitter team is investigating the issue

The Twitter support team is already aware of the issue. The company is currently investigating, but they did not offer information on a possible arrival date for a fix.

Sorry about that. Our team is aware of this, and they’re currently looking into it. We’ll reach out if we have any questions.

At the moment, affected users can only wait for new updates to emerge on the matter. We will add to this story the new relevant information that arises.

Update 1 (February 9, 2023)

10:41 am (IST): Multiple reports (1, 2, 3, 4) suggest that the translate function is again broken or not working for some users.

This problem might have something to do with the recent Twitter outage due to which users were getting ‘tweet not sent’ error.

Update 2 (February 24, 2023)

05:37 pm (IST): The recent issue with translate function appears to have been resolved as we haven’t come across any fresh report concerning the same.

Update 3 (June 1, 2023)

08:18 am (IST): Multiple reports indicate that the ‘Twitter translate tweet’ feature is currently not working (1, 2, 3).

Update 4 (June 2, 2023)

09:18 am (IST): Things seems to have gone from bad to worse as it looks like Twitter has removed the ‘Translate’ button altogether (1,2,3,4,5).

Update 5 (June 5, 2023)

05:24 pm (IST): The Twitter Translate feature is now working correctly again.

This means users have to manually copy the text of the tweet and translate it somewhere else.

Translated Unleashes Full GPT-4 Potential for Businesses Operating in Languages Other Than English - Yahoo Finance - Translation

Combining the power of Translated's state-of-the-art machine translation technology with OpenAI's latest language model, the company’s new T-LM service empowers content creation and restructuring in 200 languages.

ROME, June 05, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In a significant breakthrough for generative AI and content creation, Translated, a leader in AI-enabled language solutions, is proud to introduce its innovative language model T-LM (Translated Language Model). T-LM will help unlock the full potential of OpenAI’s GPT-4 for businesses around the world. It provides companies with a cost-effective solution to create and restructure content in 200 languages, bridging the performance gap between GPT-4 in English and non-English languages.

Until now, GPT's impressive performance has been a privilege of the English-speaking world. Companies operating in languages other than English have often found their performance lagging behind that of GPT models from several years ago, with some languages trailing by as much as three years. For these companies, the performance gap in understanding, generating, and restructuring content was an ongoing challenge that often prevented them from taking full advantage of generative AI. Additionally, using GPT-4 in non-English languages can cost up to 15 times more (see attached charts). Translated's T-LM service integrates the company’s award-winning adaptive machine translation (MT) with OpenAI's GPT-4 to bring advanced generative AI capabilities to every business in the languages spoken by 95% of the world's population.

Marco Trombetti, CEO of Translated, expressed his excitement about the project: "The predominance of English in generative AI is creating an unfair competitive advantage. With T-LM, we're democratizing access to this innovative technology, enhancing efficiencies and preserving competitiveness for businesses operating in languages other than English worldwide."

The disparity in GPT-4’s performance between English and other languages arises from the predominance of English-centric sources – such as the Common Crawl dataset and Wikipedia – in training data, leading to inferior outcomes in non-English languages. T-LM addresses this disparity by translating the initial prompt from the source language to English and then back to the user's language using a specialized model. This approach also lowers the cost of using GPT-4 in languages other than English, since the pricing model is based on text segmentation (tokenization) that is optimized for English.

Use cases for T-LM include assisting global content creation teams in content creation, enhancing multilingual customer support, and facilitating the creation of user-generated content for global platforms.

T-LM is available now through API. More information on the service can be found at translatedlabs.com/gpt.

With T-LM, Translated is underlining its commitment to allow everyone to understand and be understood in their own language and to further collaboration with OpenAI in its pursuit of this mission.

Zakir Khan, one of India’s most accomplished stand-up comedians, has won millions of hearts with his captivating stand-up performances infused with anecdotal humour. Being an ardent movie enthusiast himself, Zakir recently took to social media and urged filmmakers to not force themselves for translating dialogues. He slammed the 'translating dialogue writing and said, it may be difficult to translate English to another language ‘word to word’, thus, there is no need to translate every word.

"Dear filmmakers, when you hire a dialogue writer, let them write. Dont force to just translate. An English expression is an ‘English Fu*king Expression’ which cannot be translated to Hindi word to word. Also Hindi bolne wale log bahut saare words English mein bol lete hai. Toh dost relax! har word translate karvane ki zaroorat nahi hai," the Stand-up comedian wrote.

He added, "Maine jitna suna the ki film making is a collaborative process, toh hire someone you trust. Ya phir English me hi bana lo". He concluded the post with two examples. Check out Zakir Khan’s story here:

Translation Of Asuka-IYO SKY Expletive Filled Promo On WWE Smackdown – TJR Wrestling - TJR Wrestling - Translation

We have the translation of what Asuka and IYO SKY said to eachother in Japanese while on Smackdown and it turns out the promo wasn’t very PG.

The new Raw Women’s Champion Asuka was a guest on the Grayson Waller Effect talk show on the June 2nd edition of Smackdown. While Waller tried to ask some hard-hitting questions, the champion spent most of her time ranting in Japanese.

There were interruptions from numerous women: IYO SKY, Bayley, Shotzi, Lacey Evans and Zelina Vega, who beat Evans in a match to quality for the Women’s Money in the Bank match.

While Sky was in the ring with the Raw Women’s Champion, the two Japanese women ranted at eachother in Japanese. Unless you can speak Japanese, you probably don’t know what they said. Thankfully, we have a translation of the promo courtesy of HDSubss on Twitter. Here’s what they said.

IYO SKY: “Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Miss Asuka, you sure are getting WAY too cocky! I win at Money in the Bank (points to briefcases), I will challenge for that title. Iyo Sky will become the NEW CHAMPION! So best regards.”

Asuka: “Child! Child! You know, little children are not allowed to be here!”

IYO SKY: “Shut up, you piece of s**t!”

Asuka: “Stupid!”

Iyo: “Piece of s**t!”

Asuka: “Stupid!

While the champion won’t be in a Money in the Bank match on July 1st, IYO SKY could be because she faces Shotzi next week on Smackdown. If SKY wins that then perhaps she can take out her aggression toward her Japanese rival in a match.
