Grok is fueling fanwars with his fucked up translations on Twitter

I think its because the translation uses AI, and AI loves to imagine and hallucinate. One time I wanted to translate a japanese tweet about HANA, and the post clearly said "HANA's Jisoo" in english, but the translation changed it to "Blackpink's Jisoo" 

[u/caihuali → u/DistanceFormer9581]

real. I'd be translating korean Debut or Die AUs and manifest a random Lesserafim mention somehow

[u/hydranoid1996 → u/DistanceFormer9581]

Welcome to being in produce Japan shinsekai fandom too which grok always translated to the girls despite shinsekai having a meaning in Japanese

[u/Recent-Ad8193]

I shouldn't find this funny because I hate fanwar bs in general but Grok trying to start fanwars is hilarious.

[u/BreadfruitFeeling247]

Wtf 😭😭 They just added BTS out of nowhere in the translation

[u/kenporusty]

Ooh we found something worse at translating than Instagram!! I've learned to just not trust auto translate anymore

[u/Jaded_Eye_2227]

But also why is it translating it into super weird slang???

[u/ddalves → u/Jaded_Eye_2227]

old tweets are a big part of Grok's training data, would make sense its output is also more informal

[u/Jaded_Eye_2227 → u/ddalves]

But then that’s not translation… obviously it’s adding content that’s not there (BTS) but it’s also changing the tone unnecessarily. Ugh. Glad I stopped using that awful site years ago

Didn't realise Grok oppar was a BTS-anti /j

[u/attaboy_stampy → u/zimzalabimbimzim]

Grok was like, Imma fix this for you.

Need some ARMY beef right now.

Translations get super weird at times, I've seen posts featuring Jihyo but the app translates the name to Jeongyeon for some reason lol.

[u/jisookenobi2416]

Grok is the ultimate setup account

[u/Itz_truly_me]

Lmaooo me knowing arabic and knowing the translation is wrong is a bit funny 😭
But still, jokes aside, fanwars are annoying and shouldn’t be there in the first place.

I've seen questionable translations but grok is specially atrocious when it comes to it.

weird use of aave for no reason too

[u/Ghetto_Leda99 → u/RiotingMoon]

when I see that the OG tweet was in arabic, I was like "I know OP didn't say all that"

[u/Kitchen-Holiday6998]

Grok is either fueled by BTS snark or Kpoopheads

[u/nijiiro13]

twitter translations used to be actually really good before grok damn

[u/Onemorenightholic_]

Wtf

[u/BigBoot5737]

wait this is highkey hilarious lmaooo

[u/blairsmacaroon → u/BigBoot5737]

ikr i laughed so hard

[u/bed_surf]

Grok constantly translates NMIXX in Korean to Enhypen in English.

[u/Aggressive-Hawk9186]

We need Yuqi to fact check the translation lol

[u/vikingbiochemist]

As if twitter fanwars weren't dumb enough already now we can have fanwars over something nobody even said

[u/attaboy_stampy]

Grok:

[u/Juunlar]

Fan wars don't exist. Just block people lmao
