Sundar Pichai@sundarpichai · X谷歌翻译迎来二十周年，已从最初的简单模式匹配发展为每月服务超10亿用户的全球工具。其技术历经三个阶段：2006年依靠统计机器学习分析词簇，2016年转向神经网络实现超越字面的翻译，如今借助Gemini模型进一步提升能力。当前发展重点正从文本翻译转向流畅的实时对话，最新模型甚至能通过耳机充当口译器，并保留用户原有的语调和节奏。尽管AI翻译已支持近250种语言，人们却逐渐将其视为常态。谷歌对此表达感谢，并展望未来二十年的技术突破。
Hello. How are you？ Thank you. I love you. Please.
Some of the most frequently translated phrases of the past 20 years！
Google Translate began twenty years ago with a mission to help people understand one another， regardless of the language they speak. What started as a small experiment has become a global tool that helps over 1 billion users every month.
In that time Translate has evolved from simple pattern matching to true understanding. In 2006， it relied on statistical machine learning to look for patterns in small word clusters. By 2016， we pioneered a shift to neural networks to move beyond literal word-for-word translations， and today we're using our powerful Gemini models to make Translate even more helpful.
