The Translator’s Role In The Age Of Artificial Intelligence (ai): A Case Study On Post-editing A Religious Tourism Brochure

Authors : Belhouts Chérifa .

Abstract

This study investigates how human post-editors intervene in machine-translated texts, focusing on a religious tourism corpus translated by an AI tool. The findings indicate a shift from translators as producers in traditional translation to controllers in the age of AI, while skills from traditional translation practices remain essential in the post-editing process. Effective post-editing of religious tourism texts requires fewer linguistic corrections and more culturally oriented strategies. This shift reshapes the translator’s tasks and creates opportunities for creativity.
