Video translation , the process of converting video audio or text into another language, is commonly facilitated through auto-captions, transcribing speech into on-screen subtitles. This feature is invaluable for the deaf and hard-of-hearing, aiding language learners and broadening a video's audience. However, the prevalence of errors in auto-captions, as evidenced by the University of Texas at Austin's finding of a 60% accuracy rate for YouTube's auto-captions, can lead to confusion and, in some cases, unintended humor or offense. For instance, in a TED talk by Facebook's COO, Sheryl Sandberg, auto-captions transformed her name into "surely salmon." In contrast, Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's name became the nonsensical "she might Monday no go see a ditch." While these errors might amuse, they can also misrepresent the identity and culture of speakers, posing potential harm. The question of whether auto-captions are helpful or hu...
