      One of the tragedies of literature is that very very little literature in non-English languages is translated, like 3%. This writer from Venezuela has had her books translated and published in English and the world is better for it.

        Yes! Just last week I was talking to a friend about the one thing I really look forward to from ai is to translate literature, especially in the commonly spoken languages. Arabic, Spanish, Urdu, Hindi etc that we don’t get translated often. OK a lot of Spanish is translated but non western languages aren’t very commonly translated.
