Since employment statistics generally suck and in this particular case may be difficult to parse, I will resolve this question based on the following metric:

_____________________________________________________________________

Resolves YES if either:

1) The NYT, Washington Post, or WSJ reports in a regular article (not op-ed, not video, not podcast, etc) that there has been a large drop-off in translator/interpreter jobs due to AI. They should provide quantitative statistics as support, not just telling the story of one translator who lost their job, for instance. The drop-off needs to be substantial. I'm not going to give an exact number cut-off because it's hard to say the precise threshold this will become meaningful without having a really good understanding of how the statistics were determined, but something like 50% reduction would obviously resolve positively, and something like 3% reduction would obviously not lead to resolution. As long as the story makes clear that AI has led to this major drop-off, and it's not just a fluke of year-to-year statistics, I'm willing to resolve positively to a decently wide range, though. The article also needs to be definitive. It cannot say "this drop-off could be due to AI or the major recession". It needs to be pretty confident in its conclusion.

2) Multiple (3+) other reputable but smaller news sources report the conditions from (1) such as Vox, Chicago Tribune, Slate, The Atlantic, Boston Globe, etc.

_____________________________________________________________________

Cutoff is end of year 2027. If there is not good evidence by then that AI has led to job loss for translators, it will resolve NO.

I will not bet in this market, as the resolution is subjective. I will be happy to consult with moderators / subject matter experts / etc if there is a debate or unclear resolution conditions. If you have questions, ask in comments and I will update the market description. I reserve the right to tweak the market description over the next couple days in response to bettor feedback.
