Indeed! I'm thinking of integrating this into my app to reach a wider audience. I wonder how it performs with low-resource languages.

From the docs, it looks like they have offline capabilities but for less accurate results. Worth considering if you have network constraints.

The accuracy is impressive, but I'm more excited about the potential for real-time translation in various media formats. Video and audio content can now reach a wider audience.

To be honest, I'm concerned about how this will affect language learning and cultural exchange. Is there a balance that can be maintained?

I believe it's about making access to multiple languages more convenient without ignoring the importance of learning a second language and embracing cultural differences. There's enough room for both.

How do they handle dialects and accents? That could potentially impact the translation quality.

I think they mentioned they used advanced deep learning methods to handle various accents. Haven't seen the specifics though.

I have to admit, the privacy concerns give me pause. How do they manage data security and ensure it's GDPR compliant?

From the FAQ, they mentioned a hashing mechanism and user consent before data storage. Also, EU-based users will have additional storage location options for GDPR compliance.

The pricing seems reasonable for an API of this quality. I hope they keep it affordable for smaller organizations and individuals.
