The chapter argues that reviewing how we have collectively approached the automation of translation reveals some underexplored risks that have impacted both society at large and marginalized groups. At a time when humanity faces the farthest-reaching technological and industrial revolution of all times, exploring the roots and routes of translation automation may be key for maintaining the hard-won stability of our societies, and is a necessity to prevent existing inequalities from growing. After characterizing translation automation as an industrial process involving deskilling and a simplification of what it is to translate, cultural, social, gender, psycho-social, health, communicative, legal, and ethical risks of translation automation are discussed. From a care-ethics lens, it is suggested that our approach to translation automation so far has been unethical, and that particularly care as a value has been, once again, underestimated in both misrepresenting how humans communicate and how human translators craft mediated communication.
