This program can be made better if it first builds the grammer and dictionary as a foundation. Then, it gets fed with the parallel text data to build the statistical references between the two languages.
It is the combination of definition and context that makes a translation more accurate. In fact, that's how humans learn. We first learn to reference words/sentences to what we see (like parallel data). Then, we also learn to understand grammer and word definitions. We wouldn't learn by just one way without the other.
On another note, I think this will be great step in achieving speech AI. Just as this program translate by making statistical parallels between language, it can go further and make statistical parallels responses to a sentence. Reason why I think this program is better is because it goes beyond plain definition, the program has to "understand" the input text by searching thru its database, its "knowledge". It's still far fetch, but i think this is one step further towards AI.
This article is very in depth. I agree with the arthur. UNIX comes in many different form nowadays, especially in the backend perspective. The appearance might look and feel similar, but each OS is very different in how it is implemented. SCO's "true UNIX" is but a propaganda phrase. At the end of it, it is just another form of UNIX. SCO should not have the rights to claim what is being developed by indenpendent companies and open-source communities.
