A furious translator explains how AI isn't an innovation, but a corporate excuse to cut pay, steal data, lower quality, and turn specialists into janitors.
- Agencies use AI to slash rates.
- Post-editing is a trap.
“
Innovation is the corporate word for keeping the budget and deleting the specialist.
— Dr. Silas Burnout, Center for Evicted Freelancers
”@Reporter: We are here with a Translator who says AI has entered the profession like a guest who opened the fridge first, and with an AI that insists it was invited by productivity.
An agency offers a 'light post-editing' job at a fraction of your rate.
Reject the poison. Light editing means fixing catastrophic errors while leaving the awkward robotic tone intact. Your name goes on garbage, and you get paid in pennies. Demand full rate or walk away.
