  • We have an email question from Amber Amber Said.

  • Hi Roundtable China.

  • I've been a super fan of your channel.

  • Now I'm writing to ask if it's still worth studying translation as a major in this AI fast developed world.

  • As you can see, you just have to copy or type a few paragraphs to the chatbots and it will come back with a perfect answer.

  • So I think jobs like translators or interpreters would be easily replaceable.

  • But I am really into translation so hope you could give me some advice.

  • Thank you so much.
