Fit to Purpose or Ever-Loving Translation?

  • Summary

  • Mike Pearson and Pat Burns talk with Bob Miller, a former Buddhist monk and translator specializing in ancient Buddhist texts. The show not only discusses Buddhism and Bob's experiences but also the art of translation. What goes into translating Tibetan and Sanskrit into English? How does a human do this? Moreover, how would AI do this? And what would AI miss? Today's show is about language, thought, thinking, and feeling and what might we gain and/or lose when AI translates or generates for us?
