Easy to say in hindsight after reading this comment. But we have thought that translation wouldn't be taken by AI for the very simple reason of:

We have done it. We have tried it, we continue to do. Not professionaly, but in our day to day life, and dear god does it require a shit ton of cultural knowledge and context.

See, we've seen a video a long time ago, on why translating is difficult, particularly when idioms are used by speakers and they'd need to be translated by others. Literal translation of the idiom or proverb won't work, you/yall either find a close approximation, or make one on the spot, the latter of which can cause issues, especially when translating political translations.

We believe that if beings only had the fucking 10 minutes it takes to watch a video about beings from industries that are threatened by LLMs, and why LLMs is just garbage and ruining the industry. Like what we did here, we read your/yall's comment, we get another argument why LLMs suck for translation.

Btw, thanks for affirming OP that she will find her niche again. That was nice and kind on your/yall's part
