Abstract: The translation industry has undergone a radical transformation in
recent years due to the rapid advancement of technology. This paper examines how
modern technologies like Neural Machine Translation (NMT), Computer-Assisted
Translation (CAT) tools, and Translation Management Systems (TMS) are reshaping
translation practices. While these technologies offer unprecedented efficiency and
scalability, they also present challenges regarding quality assurance, ethical
considerations, and the evolving role of human translators. The study analyzes current
technological trends, their impact on translation workflows, and the emerging hybrid
model that combines artificial intelligence with human expertise. Special attention is
given to ethical concerns in machine translation, data privacy issues, and the necessary
competencies for translators in this new technological landscape.
