AI now dominates the translation business, but people are still needed for high-stakes work, the BBC says. That distinction matters: speed and scale do not automatically make a translation suitable when the consequences of getting it wrong are serious.
Why it mattersThe BBC’s account offers a useful boundary, even if the available summary does not specify which kinds of high-stakes work it means. AI may handle much of the volume; people remain part of the picture where the stakes rise.
