Tried it myself. Can confirm that it's extremely impressive!

#4Impressive work. The quality of training data can make all the difference, and it really shows here.

Just tried with the golem.de article:
Google Translate:
> Better than Google and Microsoft - the German company DeepL is committed to translation services. DeepL uses a novel architecture of neural networks and uses a supercomputer with 5.1 petaflops. By the same company, the service comes Linguee who has already made with translations of individual words or phrases a name. Texts translated by humans are used for translations in order to provide better results.
DeepL:
> Better than Google and Microsoft - this is the goal that DeepL, a German company, has set itself, at least for translation services. DeepL uses a novel architecture of neural networks and relies on a supercomputer with 5.1 petaflops. The Linguee service, which has already made a name for itself with translations of individual words or groups of words, comes from the same company. In doing so, human-translated texts are used for translations in order to deliver better results.
I think the DeepL version makes more sense here, but I am not a German reader so I might be off.

The DeepL version indeed makes more sense, but still has several things a human translator would probably do differently. Still very impressive.
(Unfortunately EN->DE translations from DeepL are not on the same level - yet -, at least not on the stuff I just put in.)

#7Good, but not perfect:
Über allen Gipfeln
Ist Ruh,

Above all summits
Is Roo,

#8I tried it on a few paragraphs and it's absolutely impressive, much better than Google Translate.

That's also first thing I tired, ... Looks like people are more predicable than we think. If I was them i would make sure that I do a good job on that.

#10I tried it and I was fully expecting DeepL to fare much worse than Google Translate. I was wrong. It's great to see that a small company can go head to head with Google.
By the way, most machine translation models are trained on news data. Try some out of domain data like tweets or other social media comments, if you want to put it to the test.
