No jobs are gone. The bottom, low-quality, gig economy end of some jobs may have been impacted.

Human translation is still very much a business. No lawyer or diplomat who wants to keep their job, no manufacturer of heavy machinery or medication who wants to stay in the market and not get sued, is going to use an LLM instead of a professional translator. Ask people in the business. The demamd is fine. They aren't building their revenue on translations for Joe's ice cream parlour website or private letters.

In any industry, there is at least a decently sized segment where it matters a lot that the work is actually done correctly and someone can vouch and be liable for it.
