ENOUGH WITH THESE BULLSHIT CLAIMS THAT AI CAN REPLACE HUMAN TRANSLATORS!!!
Translation is *not* the science of finding the perfect definition of a word from a foreign language and putting that definition into the text.
Translators translate, of course. But!

"running out of new ideas" is a funny way of saying "the managerial/VC class is so risk-averse that they would rather set the planet ablaze than admit that they're not fortune-telling gods"
America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?

What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?
