“AI can translate info, not inkling,
AI can translate facts, not poetry.
Till a tongue transcends lips to soul,
Translations are but soulless forgery.
Each language leaves a distinct mental imprint,
Inaccessible by the fanciest of translator.
Translation gives a glimpse into the head,
Language is highway to the soul of a culture.”
― Rowdy Scientist: Handbook of Humanitarian Science

Yet I became a linguistic enigma.
The sun never studied nuclear fusion,
Yet it is our planet's nuclear messiah.”
