Dictionary for automatic AI-translation

General

There needs to be support for dictonaries to guide the AI-translation.

In our CMMS we have certain specific translations such as swedish “object”, that should be translated to english “asset”. You AI translates object to object, witch doesn’t make sense in this context, although correct in a broader sense.

My suggestion is to inject a dictionary to the AI prompt - like my example below where I can achieve this with chat-GPT 4.

PROMPT

[general] …

[injected] Translate from Swedish to English. Use the following dictionary for specific terms (objekt=carrot, arbetsorder=banana)

[text] Jag har många objekt, med tillhörande arbetsordrar.

The result is as expected:

I have many carrots, with accompanying bananas.

    Hey Björn,

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts on adding dictionary support for AI translation. It's a fantastic idea, and we can definitely see the value in having a feature that allows for more nuanced translation, especially with specific terms like your "object" to "asset" example. We're planning to add this functionality in the future, so stay tuned for updates! Let me know if there's anything else you’d like to see.
