The translation industry is increasing with a rapid growth (source). The artificial intelligence is upgrading with great speed and they are also minimizing the word error rate. So with this share your view that why an individual should go with translation studies.
My Opinion:
Language translation services or professional translation services are increasing with lightning speed and companies who are expanding their business boundaries are relying on the translation agencies. If we compare human translator v/s Robotic translator, we can easily find the pros and cons of both the translation. Is companies with automated translators can guarantee us a high accuracy? No.
It is the human translators only who can perform this task better than robots as different services like document translation services, business translation services, legal translation services need human hands for translation due to their specific terminology and jargon. This is why for some specific industry translation market still need human translators.
