we're reading a book about how machine translation works using the example of when the author put the script of final fantasy IV through google translate, both before and after they switched to a neural network translation model in 2016

seeing all the absurdities that came of that makes me want to see someone who's never played final fantasy iv play the machine translated version and see if they can ever work out what the hell is going on
