How Google’s investment in Rank Brain and Deep Learning resulted in a dramatic improvement in Google Translate.

This is a fascinating article by the New York Times on the evolution of Google Translation using Rank Brain and Machine Learning or Deep Learning to achieve some rather spectacular results.  This is a long read, but definitely worth the investment of time.  It goes to the heart of what Google is doing internally that has profound implications for search and nearly everything Google is doing now and in the long-term future.  Highly recommended.
