I will take a more positive view, all the translators being put out of buisness will take up literary translation and we will enter a golden age when it comes to translated literature. AI still has a very long ways to go here and there is a great deal of untranslated literature out there and literature which only has a terrible translation. Probably won't happen but maybe the struggling publishing industry will see the opportunity provided by a glut of out of work translators and jump on it.

One can dream.
