This study conducts a comparative analysis of the English translations of Tang poetry by translator Xu Yuanchong and an artificial intelligence (AI) system (exemplified by DeepSeek-V1), focusing on four aspects: translation strategies, cultural imagery transmission, rhythm reproduction, and aesthetic value. Additionally, it explores the potential of “human-machine collaboration” in poetry translation in the era of artificial intelligence.
