How long will humans be needed for translation?
BBC News 4 days ago 45
Translation increasingly relies on AI, but experts say human oversight is still needed for high-stakes contexts like legal and medical documents because errors can change meaning or dosage and become harder to detect. OKA’s Wikimedia-funded study of 119 articles found 27% of AI-generated text was corrected before publication. The shift is toward drafting by machines with decreasing human review, alongside calls for systems that can judge and flag uncertainty rather than silently producing fluid-sounding mistakes.
