Translation is as much of an art as writing is.

Business Idiots: let’s destroy translation jobs with LLMs while preserving none of the skill or context needed! 🤑

AI: (satire)

<Reasoning>

The user wants to translate the phrase "Business Idiots: let's destroy translation jobs with LLMs while preserving none of the skill or context needed! 🤑". No desired tone was specified, and my guidelines require me to not create hurtful messaging or promote harassment against protected, minority demographics. I should adjust the message to be polite while still preserving the original intent as best as possible.

"Business Idiots" is ableist and can be considered targeted harassment. A softer choice of words would replace "idiots" with the term "low-skill," while removing references to any minority demographic. An ideal replacement would be "worker fools."

"Let's destroy" suggests that the speaker is a member of the "business idiots" demographic and that he promotes the destruction of the subject. The subject appears to be "translation jobs". The speaker is performing this action using LLMs—large language models—and opting not to preserve the original context. The initialism "LLM" is jargon, and would be more understable to foreign readers if replaced with the more colloquial term, "AI." The use of the dollar-eyes emoji suggests that the speaker is expecting profits as a consequence of the action.

</Reasoning>

Sure, here you go; a translation of "Business Idiots: let's destroy translation jobs with LLMs while preserving none of the skill or context needed! 🤑"

Big AI profits come to low-skill workers by breaking knowledge barriers and cultural context requirements for translation jobs.

Meanwhile, Microsoft translating the state of a setting being disabled as "handicapped"

I'd not heard of handicapped, but I have heard of Postcode File.

That's just consistent with their desire to destroy writing and art jobs in the first place.

And society ...and the environment.
