>With only instructional materials (a 500-page reference grammar, a dictionary, and ≈400 extra parallel sentences) all provided in context, Gemini 1.5 Pro and Gemini 1.5 Flash are capable of learning to translate from English to Kalamang— a Papuan language with fewer than 200 speakers and therefore almost no online presence—with quality similar to a person who learned from the same materials
I'm not entirely sure, that I totally convinced, but yeah, it is better than me. I mean, I could do the same, but it would take me ages to go through 500 pages and to use them for the actual translation.
I'm not sure, because Gemini knows a lot of languages. The third language is easier to learn than the second one, I suppose 100th language is even easier? But still Gemini do better, than I believed.
