This study aims to analyze the translation quality of Claude AI in rendering Arabic fiction texts, namely six short stories from the anthology Hams an-Nujum by Naj?b Ma?f??, into Indonesian. The study uses the translation quality assessment model of Nababan, Nuraeni, and Sumardiono (2012), which includes the aspects of accuracy, acceptability, and readability. This research adopts a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through reading and note-taking techniques and samples determined by purposive sampling. The assessment was carried out by comparing Claude AI’s translation with Muasomah’s professional translation and a literal translation on the accuracy aspect, then assigning scores from 1 to 3 to each aspect with a weighting of 3:2:1. The results of the data analysis are presented using formal and informal methods.
Based on the results of the analysis, Claude AI obtained an average accuracy score of 2.61, acceptability of 2.74, and readability of 2.88, with an overall translation quality value of 2.70 out of 3, which is rounded to 3. In the aspect of accuracy, 71 data (68.3%) are classified as accurate, 25 data (24.0%) as less accurate, and 8 data (7.7%) as inaccurate. In the aspect of acceptability, 81 data (77.9%) are classified as acceptable, 19 data (18.3%) as less acceptable, and 4 data (3.8%) as unacceptable. In the aspect of readability, 94 data (90.4%) have a high readability level, 7 data (6.7%) have a medium level, and 3 data (2.9%) have a low level. Overall, Claude AI ’s translation is of good quality, that is, accurate, acceptable, and highly readable, with its main strength lying in readability. Nevertheless, several weaknesses were identified, namely errors in understanding context and word reference, a tendency to generalize or leave cultural-religious terms untranslated, and a tendency toward overly literal translation. Thus, Claude AI can be used as a reliable aid in translating Arabic–Indonesian fiction texts, but it cannot yet fully replace the role of the human translator and therefore still requires post-editing.
