The Translator is dead, long live the Translator!

Scientific progress, advances in human interaction and the evolution of artistic and technical expression have created new areas of study for Translation Studies. Researchers are faced with the challenge of responding to increasingly pressing questions that, in the age of artificial intelligence (AI), have implications not only for academic debate but also for the very concept of translator training. Far from sharing the alarmist predictions of certain theorists and didacticians, we propose to reflect on the challenges and opportunities of the new situation for researchers and future translation professionals.
