    Why was the comment of the author of the translation-site that explains the methodology flagged / dead?

    The mere fact that the translation was AI-assisted shouldn't be a reason to flag a comment. AI translations, especially supervised translations, can actually achieve a reasonable level of quality.

    Disagreement on AI philosophy shouldn't be a reason to flag a contribution.

      A professional book editor and Hebrew translator said the translation of the one work he checked out was "impressive".

      Others have responded equally positively to the Latin translations.

      AI as a panacea is overwrought, but there are genuine positive uses of it. Would critics rather have NO translations of these pivotal works?

    This is a valuable initiative. It would be great to include more historical context alongside each translated work.

    Nice project, but I think the PDF format could be improved. I'd prefer having landscape layout and original text and translated text side-by-side or keep the portrait layout and do a line-by-line translation so that it is easier to review and spot translation errors.

      Thank you.

      Your suggestion makes sense, and you are not the first to offer it.

      Maybe someday, although probably not CC licensed.
