Learning to speak two or more languages I see as a big opportunity and a privilege to man , that AI translators can never replace . So no matter how many AI we have as translators, they can never be perfect nor be compared to humans who can verbally speak and serve as translators.
I see learning to speak other languages apart from our mother tongue or the language a country is known for as an added opportunity, advantage and a privilege on its own that will help us when we are already out of our comfort zone and all around the world π
Even at this present time, the AI as a translator is not as good as many thinks because coming from how long AI has being serving as a translating tool, I can say its still needs lots of improvement and can not be compared to humans who still work as translators in big organizations, especially in the areas of understanding some deep translations.
There is nothing like understanding a language and knowing each words for word, because many a-times, the Google translator usually do not correctly give you the understanding of what you need in a proper translated language. Which however leaves you confused.
Is it then necessary to learn new language? To this question I will say yes especially for those who will love to leave their country to another country. Language barrier has been one difficult issue many are facing while in transit. And to many who travel π§³ the world π, encountering humans with face to face contact,, learning to speak some of the important languages like French, Spanish and English has become a must despite whether we have AI Translators or not because AI Translators are better used online for interaction among people.
When it comes to how fast can an individual understand the language of another individual through translation, I could say it has a slow rating because the time taking to use your mobile App translator is not the same as when you have already learned how to speak such a language. It makes conversation and understanding flows very well with efficiency.
Many has loose out on opportunities of all kinds like securing a job in another country, gaining admission to schools and even loosing out on some other benefits due to language barrier. Many has also gained all the aforementioned because of how they can speak other languages. So the question of AI serving us as a Translator is limited to some certain areas.
I have a cuisine who speaks French very well, and as a business man, this has helped him cross boarders easily and has made his contacts in the French speaking countries grow. So even while the AI Translator is being used by those in the internet, speaking other important languages physically and verbally will help us cross hurdles because I believe that there is a power of attraction when two people can understand themselves clearly through speaking the same language.
However, two people that speaks two different languages and understands themselves properly by using AI Translator is not a bad trend, but this could pose some hinderances when it involves face to face interaction. We know that learning new languages are not easy. It definitely requires lots of work, but it opens lots of other chapters of life for us as individual human beings.
