AI翻译快但缺文化味,人工校对不可或缺。

The impact of postediting on AI generative translation in Yemeni context: Translating literary prose by ChatGPT

  • 30位译者评估ChatGPT-4生成的文学译文
  • 文学类文本需人工校对以保风格与文化准确
  • 适合关注人机协作翻译的研究者与译者

本研究探讨人工智能在翻译中的作用,聚焦ChatGPT-4,评估其在文学翻译中人类后编辑的必要性。采用混合方法,30名专业译者对选定阿拉伯语和英语文学文本的AI生成译文进行评估与修改。结果表明,尽管AI提升了翻译速度与可及性,但在处理语言的文化、风格与修辞层面仍有限。参与者普遍认为,小说与戏剧类文本尤其需要人工后编辑。研究得出结论:未来应是人机协作模式,而非取代人类译者。人工智能应作为辅助工具,而人类专业知识对保障翻译质量与文化适切性至关重要。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This study examines the role of artificial intelligence in translation, focusing on ChatGPT, specifically ChatGPT-4, and the extent to which human postediting is required in literary translation. A mixed-method approach was adopted, involving 30 professional translators who evaluated and postedited AI-generated translations of selected Arabic and English literary texts. The results show that although AI improves translation speed and accessibility, it remains limited in handling cultural, stylistic, and figurative aspects of language. Participants generally confirmed the necessity of human postediting, particularly in novels and drama. The findings indicate that emerging human-machine collaboration model rather than replacement of human translators. The study concludes that AI should be used as a supportive tool, while human expertise remains essential for ensuring translation quality and cultural appropriateness.
