Machine Translation Challenges to the Interpreting Industry

Last month, we published a short video showing how machine translation can be scary. This time machine translation challenges to the interpreters, and to the translators of course. I will just quote what I said last month because I have still the same attitude towards machine translation:

“This application may seem scary at first sight; however, I don’t think that any machine translation can replace the human touch. I don’t think any machine can understand the cultural context of a text. This application may be useful to get an insight about a text but it can not be used as a professional translator. Do you also share my ideas?”
