AI-Translated Social Media Posts: The Risk Without Human Review

Today’s AI-translation capabilities are powerful. With a simple search, your social media content can be translated into over 50 languages. While this might seem like the most affordable and efficient way to reach a diverse audience, AI translations that have not been reviewed by a professional translator can potentially damage your brand’s credibility. 

Reviewing your AI-translated content before posting is an essential step in expanding your global reach while maintaining cultural sensitivity.  Let’s highlight the key risks your brand faces without careful human translation review:

1. Missed Cultural Connection

AI-translations often struggle to communicate colloquial phrases and cultural nuances. While the individual word translations might be technically accurate, improperly translated cultural expressions may fall flat, making your content appear inauthentic or confusing to understand. Human reviewed translations can ensure that your brand connects meaningfully across different cultures. 

2. Industry-Specific Precision

Technical and industry-specific terminology requires absolute precision. AI-translations may provide vague translations that damage the technical accuracy of your message. Professional human translators verify that your content communicates the precise technical language specific to your industry. 

3. Preserving Brand Voice

Presenting a consistent brand image across all platforms is essential for building a cohesive global brand. AI-translations can lack the ability to maintain the unique tone, creativity, and personality that define your brand.  

Human translation review can help ensure your brand’s distinctive voice remains, preserving the nuanced style and creative expression that make your communication your own. 

AI-translations are a great start to building a global brand. However, to truly connect with a global audience and communicate with cultural knowledge, human review is imperative.
