Automatized AI-based language translators like Google Translate make all of us language specialists. This kind of AI-based solution can translate almost every text or speech into any other language. When that kind of system translates speech, it uses speech to text-application, then it translates the language to English. And after that, it translates English into some other language.
These kinds of tools are effective and free translation tools. And they are easy to use. So they are making social media applications more effective and fun. But the language and Internet are also making this kind of system dangerous. We must realize that language is not just spoken words.
Language is body language but it's also culture. And if people don't realize that, it can cause problems. The thing is that people must realize that some other people might have different cultural backgrounds. And that person might have different opinions.
At this point, people misunderstand that we always must accept other people's opinions. We have the right to defend our opinions and values. Even if some other people live in some other country. And even if that person has strong opinions. We have the right to have different opinions than some other people.
If other people don't like our opinions, that's not a problem. We just can't please everyone, even if we want to. Discussion means that we talk about things at the same level and on an equal footing. Many people think that conversation is synonymous with ordering or commanding people. That is not true. If we want to discuss something we must have the preparedness and will to hear other people's opinions.
We must not like those opinions. But we must realize that other people might not like our opinions either. Sometimes we face a situation where we must do something that we don't like. In those cases, we have no choice but to select. But that doesn't mean that we like those situations. And in those situations, we also have the right to say that we don't like what we do.
But in the net, the problem is that. We cannot see the opponent while we discuss in the net. We can give answers to what is not pleasing to those people. This is the problem with text-based discussion boards. In those discussion boards, people just write things. And other people answer those texts if they answer.
Those texts are the cases where we should think about, what we are writing. Those texts are giving evidence against us. That means nobody knows if we are joking at some discussion board. That's why we must think very carefully about what we say and especially write on the net.
