How Will Real-Time Translation Shape the Future of Language Learning?

With fast advancements in real-time translation and AI tools like video dubbing, I wonder if language learning will become less popular in the future.

Learning a new language takes a lot of time and effort. In 10-20 years, as technology reduces language barriers, will fewer people find it worth the investment? Could fluency in foreign languages become rarer as a result?

People who learn a language because they genuinely want to will likely continue to do so, but people who learn a language because they have to probably won't do it.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts. This is just a thought experiment—I believe language learning has many unique benefits that technology can't replace!
