TAUS is delighted to present the latest DeMT™ Evaluation Report, a follow-up to our June 2022 publication. In today’s rapidly evolving landscape of online machine translation (MT) services, we revisit the state of customizable MT to provide you with a comprehensive update. Over the past year, we’ve witnessed a considerable shift in the translation industry with the meteoric rise of large language models (LLMs). Through cutting-edge research and experimentation, these developments have ushered in a wave of transformative potential, revolutionising the way we approach translation. Is there still a need to build custom MT engines, one might ask.
