I don't disagree with that, and I ain't saying AI is the best thing ever, just that current day localizer brought it on themselves by bastardising works they were supposed to translate but decided to impose their views and opinions on it...
Maybe it will serve as a wake-up call to get more serious people doing the job correctly, that would be the best thing
Can't believe such a fallacious comment got so much positive attention.

Starts with this, then proceeds to defend AI like someone who actually thinks AI is the best thing ever

This is on pretty bad faith, you are acting like translators shoehorning their views into translations is the norm rather than the exception,you just don't hear about the decent translations because those are the norm.
Not to mention, this completely glosses over the fact that translation it's never a 1:1 endeavor as AI bros seem to think, there is plenty of nuance that is lost in the process of translation due to cultural differences and the like that just not exist in the target language. Part of the work in translating is making sure you manage to get across all the subtleties that are not being explicitly stated.

As stated before, most of translators do their "job" correctly, they don't need a wake up call for something they are doing correctly.
