So, the question is, what kind of work interests you - high speed or high stakes?

In terms of future jobs I think there will be work for both if you have good skills, so think more about the kind of work life you want than the threat of AI or whatever.

Best wishes!

Being able to translate medical terminology, accurately and clearly, puts you in a position to help spread vital information amongst Scientists and Doctors. It will also place you in good stead should you choose to work in Media Translation. It is much easier to shift from technical modes of writing/translation to non-technical modes than Vice Versa.
