Advances in AI and Machine translation are making headlines.  But we still need human linguists, translators and interpreters (TI).  Adapting language and TI education to this technological shift is crucial to avoid deepening the current ‘language crisis’. Part of that adaptation will depend on undergraduate language teachers who teach at the boundary between humanities and TI.  Adopting a cross-national mixed methods approach, my inquiry asks: How can teacher voices and cross-disciplinary knowledge contribute to the creation of innovative tools for language teacher development with and for TI in a post-AI era?
