Translator: will AI take this job?

88%Start packing
Gracias, merci, danke — the AI says thanks in 100 languages. Sorry.

Why

Microsoft’s 2025 study put interpreters and translators at the very top of AI applicability. Live interpreting at sensitive events and sworn translation hold out longer.

Where to look next

  1. Conference / court interpreter
  2. AI translation reviewer and editor
  3. Cultural consultant for brands entering new markets

What AI already does

  • First drafts of translations
  • Subtitles and localisation
  • Terminology lookup

What stays human

  • Live interpreting
  • Sworn and legal translation
  • Cultural nuance and tone

Skills worth learning — Creative & media

  • Your own voice and audience
  • Directing AI tools, not competing with them
  • Live and in-person formats

For fun, not a forecast. Scores are our rough estimates of how much of a job’s tasks AI can already help with, based on the ILO (2025) and Microsoft Research (2025) studies. Exposure usually means the job changes, not that it disappears — the ILO puts about 1 in 4 jobs worldwide in exposed occupations, but only 3.3% in the highest category.
