Can the principle of language translator software be used for message decoding coming from extraterrestrians?

SECan the principle of language translator software be used for message decoding coming from extraterrestrians?
If we knew their language and had some way of transliterating it into syllables we could comprehend and associate with our own common verbs nouns and interjections, then yes it could be used to translate universal languages... But those d*mn extraterrestrians are just dumb.... I don't think they know what they're saying! The extraterrestrial beings rock!
Current technology no. But there are definitely "learning" algorythms now that are improving all the time. There may come a day, when a computer could listen to a group of visiting Aliens and start picking up words here and there by finding patterns between speach and actions. This would then have a chain reaction with the computer learning this language faster and and faster. Eventually it would have the language stored and the universal translator could be used to communicate.Can the principle of language translator software be used for message decoding coming from extraterrestrians?
no! LT software use programed data by someone who knows the languages.if the person wich will make the program speaks "extraterestrian languages", so yes.Can the principle of language translator software be used for message decoding coming from extraterrestrians?
Language translators aren't intelligent. They work by feeding in data. Beach = "la plage." Airplane = "l'avion." "A pretty face" = "une jolie figure."



In order to build a language translator, we would have to understand the language of the aliens.



Gene Roddenberry, creator of the Star Trek universe, proposed communicating with a series of numbers. Tapping out a simple 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 (a series of prime numbers) establishes that we are intelligent. Carl Sagan proposed communicating in pictures in a grid where the sides of the grid were prime numbers. This message was actually broadcast from the radio telescope at Arecibo.
First, find an extraterrestrial who wants to talk to you.



Of course it can't, you idiot. You have to load the other language in first. Computers aren't actually intelligent, you know.
