Regarding the much-discussed topic of #translatorobsolescence, we can take a look an analysis conducted by U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in July 2022:

👉 Projections for 2029 anticipate a 20% increase in translation jobs, indicating a continued demand for #translationservices due to globalization. This marks a slowdown compared to the previous growth rate of 49.4 percent from 2008 to 2018.

👉 The Occupational Employment Statistics database recorded a significant increase in translation jobs from 1999 to 2009, with the occupation tripling in size during that period.

👉 Despite advancements in #translation software and the potential for automation, the projected increase in #translationjobs suggests that human translators will still be needed in the foreseeable future.
