Amazingly and tragicomically, I sometimes see people who ostensibly are translators boasting on places like LinkedIn that they are “honored” or “proud” to have acquired some AI certification. Have they neither shame nor intelligence?
I guess not, or maybe it’s just their correct acknowledgement that translation has ended. I wonder, however, if these people think that using AI to translate or to do anything for that matter is going to acquire them clients. Most of these people appear to be clueless about business in the real world, and that is going to be fatal in a world where human skills, including skills of using non-human entities, are totally insufficient to survive. They will perhaps learn that, but the party will long have been over.
