Ehhhh,not so much. For one thing,this guy is British,which means his experience with the British military will be vastly different from the American Military.
Frankly,I have no idea how this works in the British military,or even in the conventional US military,but I do know human translators will not be getting replaced on Special Operations teams anytime soon. Not only can they translate,but they can also help haul necessary gear and they can also shoot and stand watch at night,
BTW,my niece married a guy that enlisted in the Navy,and they sent him to language school to learn Muddle Eastern languages. He has been in the Navy for about 12 years now,is a E-7,and AFAIK,has never served a day with a Navy unit. He has been attached to different US Army units his entire career,and is now stationed at a Army base in the south.
This tells me a couple of things. One is the good news she didn't marry a dummy,despite him joining the Navy because he must be very,VERY good at his job or he would have been sent back to the Navy long ago to sit in some office somewhere and translate intercepted messages.
The other thing it tells me is that translators on the ground that are capable of deploying with Special Operations Teams and do their translating both accurately and under a certain amount of pressure are VERY hard to find,and I don't see the need for these people disappearing any time in the near future. In fact,I am shocked that language translation isn't a slot on Special Operations Teams,and he hasn't been "drafted" into the USMC (Force Recon does VERY good work!) or the US Army.
Besides the obvious mathematics of language,there are the nuances that software and machines can't deal with,like the look in a man's eyes as you ask him questions while he is still in shock at being captured and not thinking straight,and the FACT that by the time you get him back to a higher headquarters were the staff officers get to deal with him,any intel he had is already dated and expired.
Nope. Humans can't be replaced yet,and maybe never. Not out at the sharp point where time is everything,anyhow.
