I am originally skeptical of @kagihq ā€˜s new Translate when I read the changelog since itā€™s using LLM, but damn I was wrong.

I used a piece of Chinese news to test the translation, and Kagi is the only one that translate å‰Æēø½ēµ±å‹éøäŗŗ to ā€œVice President-electā€. Google Translate translated it to ā€œVice President Candidateā€ (å‰Æēø½ēµ±å€™éøäŗŗļ¼‰ while DeepL only translate it to Vice President (å‰Æēø½ēµ±)

Kagiā€™s Translation Result: According to a Reuters report on November 6, citing sources, Biden will provide billions of dollars in emergency aid to Ukraine before leaving office. The Reuters report stated that the White House did not respond to requests for comment. Since Trump has repeatedly expressed disinterest in aiding Ukraine, and Vice President-elect Vance has also publicly opposed supporting Ukraine, there are concerns that Trump may significantly reduce or even stop aid to Ukraine once he takes office.

Did you know that paid maternity leave benefits have only been around since 1971 in Canada? Before that, a new mother had to quit work or return to work quickly if her family depended on her income.

This article discusses how to protect privacy, amidst concerns of increased government surveillance.

The article is aimed at Asylum seekers & immigrants to the US, but it's solid advice for anyone, really.

Recommendations include using encrypted messaging apps like Signal, Apple iMessage, and WhatsApp, and setting messages to disappear.

It also recommends minimizing data sharing and deleting data when possible, particularly from Google.

In Welsh myths, pigs originally came from the Otherworld, a gift from the fairy king Arawn. The Welsh point to all the many different kinds of marvelous food one can turn pigs into (bacon, sausages, pork chops, etc.) as proof that pigs are magical creatures.
