Looks like MAO released a revised White Album 2 translation now done with GPT-6 Astra. 3,200 manuscript rows changed compared with v1.3.6.https://github.com/MAO-TLs/white-album-2/releases/tag/v2.0.0
>>51237912Interesting, Astra revised 4.15% of the lines, which doesn't seem that much. Whatever the workflow was, it seems the vast majority of the previous translation was given a green light.
>>51237894>>51237912Fuck off from this thread, jewish AI shill. Stop your faggot spam.

Why is every company outside of like 2 just slow as fuck with everything?
>>51242597For Nekonyan they're all in a clique and don't hire people outside it, and it just so happens that clique is full of programmers that are extremely slow. I hate to >muh ai, but if they're not using it for translation then they should at least use it to speed up the programming side of things.
>>51242708I can believe that, but surely this isn't an explanation for all companies? Mangagamer and Sekai have both gotten much slower in recent years. Also, while JAST was always on the slow side, they have gotten abysmal, in the recent years. That's why I kinda like Shiravune. While some of their translations might be a little questionable; they are one one of the only publishers who get shit done, and don't stall projects for years, for no discernible reason. I am looking forward to seeing how Kagami Games handles things. So far, they had been fairly promising.
>>51242824>all companiesAll companies have woke af dudes on staff. They're probably internally saying "AI? Never ever" and the CEOs are like "h-haha..."They're still in that phase, but will eventually switch to AI+edited
>>51242824>Mangagamer and Sekai have both gotten much slower in recent years.I think for MG and Sekai they've just slowed down operations entirely because of retardation. MG focused too much on their own store instead of the Steam audience and Sekai has pretty much lost all goodwill from the community at this point. I think them announcing Hamidashi Creative/Parfait and then cancelling, or releasing in them in Chinese later was the final nail in the coffin for Sekai.
>>51242860Sure they will AItard
>>51242887>Al
>>51242860Kill yourself, AI shill. I fucking hate the SJWs and all they stand for, and yet I don't shill AI. All this bullshit about the left being anti-AI and the right being pro-AI is a retarded astrosurf. AI slop is AI slop, no matter which politic side shills or dunks on it. Also, your theory is fake and gay, because we were getting plenty of human translations from Mangagamer 10 years ago, when AI slop wasn't a thing. According to your schizo conspiracy theory, of all publishers secretly using AI slop, we should be getting more translations than ever, when it's the opposite. I think that you should just perform a late stage abortion on yourself, for the wellbeing of all people on the board.
>>51243028
>>51242868True. Sekai burned so much good will, with their retarded decisions. Also, their schedule is an absolute fucking mess. Harukuru 18+ is still not out after 1.5 years since the initial release. How can you be this fucking incompetent? They also buy random licenses, only to never do anything with them, like they did with enshin Ranman.I wonder what is up with Jast. I always preferred more dark and serious VNs, and JAST would fill that spot nicely. Other publishers focus too much on moege and nakige in my opinion, desu.
>>51242974>>51243035Is that your boyfriend, faggot jew?
>>51243048What you have against faggot jews?
>>51242824>That's why I kinda like Shiravune. While some of their translations might be a little questionable; they are one one of the only publishers who get shit donepretty easy to get shit done when you butcher the fuck out of your releases and half ass everything associated with it.
>>51243398I AM aware of their shortcomings, but they can be decent on bigger projects if they want. The problem is the lack of consistency. Still, at least they aren't making us wait for projects that were announced over 10 years. Say what you will about their translations, but at least they get shit done.
>>51243028>publishers are secretly using AI slop so by your logic,They're not. That's the thing. They're doing the kneejerk reaction to AI. Where they take extra time to "prove a point".This is actually tied to something someone here said - actually it might not have been here, it might have been on vndb. But they said that AI was going to kill actual fan translations. And I thought that didn't make any sense. Wouldn't it speed up fan translations and double and triple them? And now I realize that no, that person was correct. As the driving motivation behind fan translations is how much we the readers would be excited for a translation and the dopamine high the translator gets from that. But now it's all whatever. I mean people still care, but they don't care nearly as much. So the translator naturally doesn't care as much either. I think that this also applies to professional work. They still make deals and release things, because they need to put food on the table, but the excitement people have and thus motivation you have to work is not there anymore so it takes longer. Shiravune meanwhile seems to be using AI so this doesn't apply to them. They also probably have more people on staff thanks to chinese money.
>>51243698>They also probably have more people on staff thanks to chinese money.FWIW they recently laid off almost everyone working for them a month or two back.

Phantom or Cocoro, VNTS?

>>51247473Yes an official TL was announced a few months ago being done by the two guys who did Steins;Gate.
