I've lived in a couple of countries where there is a "vulnerable" language. I understand the emotional attachment that the native speakers have to their language.

However, in the larger picture: languages evolve. New ones develop, old ones die. Do artificial attempts to "rescue" a language really make sense?

It makes no less sense than any other work done to protect or restore something created by human beings. This comment is no more insightful than saying "cathedrals burn down, do artificial attempts to 'restore them' make sense?"

Languages evolve, but it's probably bad when language evolution is driven by bad AI slop translations made by people who have no relation to the language.

The AI slopwave is about as close to natural linguistic evolution as world war 2 was to natural selection (..aaand there we hit godwin's law, I'll see myself out)
