AI translation has been around for decades now. It’s pretty damn good these days. But translators still find plenty of work and most of them will tell you that they use AI translation to improve their work efficiency. As with any job, the last 10% of work is always the hardest. AI can get a pretty good “sketch” of what someone wants, but a real artist can polish out the details and make it even better.

- adgjlsfhk1 4y agoThe thing to realize is that this means translators are being replaced by AI. If a translator can reduce time per translation by 50% because they're just doing a proofread at the end, that means they can do 2x more work/half as many translators are needed.
