Yep - and yet

they also have the nerve to demand 99.6% accuracy, which you don't get in MT without years of experience, esp combined with speed. I have 15 years and still struggle. They can try to treat it as just a production job as much as they want. As long as they want accuracy it will never happen. No amount of frills in Fluency can replace an experienced MT. Someday the technology will be there, but not there yet.

Here's to a better day, TiredMMMT.
