“Server” in this case refers to client-server architecture.

helvetpuli@sopuli.xyzto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How does Netflix, HBO and other services get their subtitles? Are they now using AI to help translate?73·14 days agoMost of us can’t read as quickly as we can absorb spoken language.
I learned this directly when I decided to create English subtitles for French films and TV as an exercise when I was trying to get from B2 to C1 in French. It was a good exercise, but the result was unusable because the text often goes by too quickly to read.
That’s when I understood that it really is an art.
The subtitle artist must make descriptions work, punch lines land, and reproduce dialog with the correct gravitas. And they have to do it while cutting 50 percent or more of a meaningful, culturally-grounded translation.
It doesn’t seem like the kind of thing an id-less ml model could ever do.
It means the same thing as sticking your chopsticks in the rice so they stand up, or as pouring a couple of drops of your alcohol on the ground.
It’s universal. You just have to find the local way of expressing it.

People who think the idiom is “how x looks like” rather than “what x looks like”, which is more correct.
