AB - The present study explores stylistic and quality differences in English translations of a Korean short story by ChatGPT, Papago, and two human translators. Results of two types of quantitative analysis are reported. A PCA analysis showed that, in the distribution of 80 topmost frequent words, Papago was clearly distinguished from human translators while no such distinction was found vis-a-vis ChatGPT. In a follow-up manually-annotated creativity and quality analysis, Papago was again far from measuring up to human translators with near-zero creativity and numerous errors. ChatGPT also made many errors (about half of Papago’s) but exhibited a measure of creativity of the kinds seen in human translation. ChatGPT’s display of creativity, along with a significant reduction in errors compared to Papago, is attributed to ChatGPT’s ability to consider the context in comprehending the source text and transferring the meaning into the target language.
