In favor of an AI-powered translation button on the EA Forum

It'd be great if anyone landing on the forum could have the opportunity to seamlessly translate its content into their language with the click of a button.

A bit like Wikipedia, but for all languages, and powered by AI; a bit like copy-pasting the URL into Google Translate, but without copy-pasting, and with better translation.

I don't know to what extent it's easy to implement into the Forum, but I would have expected it wouldn't be much more complicated than the AI-generated readings of the posts. But I could be wrong about this, of course.

Note that Chrome has this feature already

But it's usually bad, isn't it? I mean Google Translate is not my go-to translator... Or am I missing something?

I find it's good enough for me, but I haven't deeply engaged with really complicated texts

Good to know. I think French is usually very badly translated by Google Translate.
