Since 2023, translators and interpreters have seen work dry up, rates plummet and their jobs reduced to editing AI-generated output. Some are leaving the field, others are considering bankruptcy. All despite any major upgrade in translation quality.

Working on a CEO speak translator. So far I’ve got
1. We’re ending remote work and returning to office to improve collaboration = stealth layoffs
2. We are an AI first company and you don’t get more resources until you can show why you can’t do the job with automation = hiring freeze
Any others?

How are people claiming they bought their cybertruck before Musk went MAGA and being repeated by reporters; Elon endorsed election deniers in November 2022, the first cybertruck was delivered November 2023
“At the second annual Cybertruck Rodeo in Central Texas, the EV owners said they’re confused that the public doesn’t appear to separate Elon Musk’s divisive politics from his company’s products.”
