Fast and secure translation on your local machine with a GUI
Interestingly, I think this is actually related to the offline translation features built into Firefox. Both are products of "Project Bergamot", but the Mozilla-maintained version was later merged into the Firefox application:

https://hacks.mozilla.org/2022/06/training-efficient-neural-...
https://github.com/mozilla/firefox-translations
https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/toolkit/components/t...
Extra webpage with screenshot and links, impossible to search for normally:
https://translatelocally.com/downloads/
Does one thing and does it well.
Oh— For downloading models, it's much easier to pipe/`xargs` `translateLocally --available-models` into `translateLocally -d` than go through the GUI.

https://libretranslate.com/
- API wrapping Argos Translate.
https://lingva.thedaviddelta.com/
- Google Translate scraper/privacy frontend.
https://euroglot.com/
- Proprietary, subscription trialware.
- Firefox Translations is now enabled by default in Nightly.

Are there plans for Firefox Translations to get updates for Japanese and Korean in the future?
You can submit feature requests to this Github repository: Add Japanese Translation.

Firefox told me about the Translations addon, so I thought I'd test it out... I suspect it may need some work.
I reported this to https://github.com/mozilla/firefox-translations/issues/688

Mozilla Launches Responsible AI Challenge
Mozilla did release DeepSpeech[0] and Firefox Translation[1] (the latter of which they included in Firefox, to offer client-side webpage translations.)
They definitely have fewer resources than OpenAI, and they do not produce SOTA research (their publications have plummeted to 1/year anyway[2]). So the only way for them to make progress is to seek government grants or make challenges like these.
This challenge is unlikely to be profitable for the winning team: the expected value of winnings are likely around $1K when taking into account the probability that another team gets a better rank, but ML research projects are often more expensive (recently, Alpaca spent upwards of $600 on computation alone; and of course pretraining large models is much more expensive). So the main gain will be publicity.

Should the SolarPunk community speak Esperanto? A neutral and efficient language
Esperanto is eurocentric (sounds foreign for many people, in particular Asians),is poor in history and is spoken by a very small minority. SolarPunk should focus on local languages and multilingualism, to celebrate the local culture and inclusion, instead. AI translation should be part of SolarPunk as well. So, SolarPunks should consider learn a language that could help improve their local community e.g. immigrants or dying languages. They also should consider working or using open source AI translator (e.g. https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate).
