Abstract
With the development of artificial intelligence, numerous translation technologies emerge in an endless stream, bringing a lot of changes to the translation industry. Since many language service works is completed by artificial intelligence, translators face great challenges. The application of various types of translation technologies requires translators to be able to use translation technology on the basis of traditional translation capabilities. By analyzing the current situation of translation technology development, this paper elaborates the translation technology capabilities that translators should have in the era of artificial intelligence, including computer operation, searching information, using CAT tools, terminological competence, post-editing and the ability to manage a translation project.
