    That would be a very stupid thing to do. While translation can be done with AI, at a bare minimum, proofreading will always be necessary.

      I agree wholeheartedly and as her manager, I intend to defend her position. In the meantime, we’re working together to upskill her in other areas to prepare. These are very technical documents, so we have some time. I would hate to lose her because she is smart, dedicated, and compassionate

      some proofreading will always be necessary, but you need fewer and fewer people over time.

        “some”? If you’re translating text related to a new product or legal text, a translator that knows and understands the context of what they’re translating is far more valuable than any TM or AI.

        AI might be good for a first pass but proofreading will always be necessary and could even take longer than just letting the translator do the entire thing.
