The role of articial intelligence tools in shaping translational skills

Аннотация

In recent decades, translation has evolved from a manual, intuitive activity into a dynamic eld shaped by technological advancements. Among these, articial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a powerful force, oering rapid and cost-eective solutions to meet the growing demand for translation services [1]. Tools such as DeepL and Google Translate demonstrate the capabilities of machine translation and neural networks process and deliver texts with increasing sophistication. While AI undoubtedly enhances eciency, its widespread adoption raises critical concerns, particularly regarding its impact on the development of human translational skills. Overreliance on AI tools may hinder studentsₗ engagement with core linguistic competencies and reduce their ability to think critically during translation tasks [2]. As universities strive to produce high-level language professionals, the balance between leveraging AI tools and nurturing essential translation abilities becomes increasingly important. This article explores the dual impact of AI on translational skill formation, weighing its benets against its limitations.
