Yes the real achievement here I think is the creation and public sharing of the translation tools. The AI translation here should be considered effectively a proof of concept of the tools.

Given the particular nature of this game, so reliant on inside jokes requiring a knowledge of SEGA history, it's likely an AI translation could miss a lot, and I think the community will eagerly await further real translations done by professional translators leveraging these tools.

I hope so... but in the fan translation world the first translation is almost always the only translation, and the only one most people will experience even in the exceedingly rare case of an alternate translation coming into existence (as only the first one ever makes the news).
