Good literary translation requires understanding (language, culture, genre--on both sides of the translation) and an ability to write well. "AI" can't do that. There are no shortcuts. Treat your work and foreign language readers with the respect they deserve. You won't fool anyone with this.

So, hypothetically… if you were miserable at your current job and had been looking for a new one unsuccessfully for 20 months, but a company you used to work for (good people!) offered you a job to come back, but the pay would be almost half what you make now…

Would you take it?

I reached out to The White House and asked about its use of AI-generated Halo imagery. White House Deputy Press Secretary Kush Desai just responded to me, and it's insane.
