Artificial intelligence is reshaping workplaces at remarkable speed. From customer service to software coding, companies are racing to automate tasks once handled by people. The shift has created excitement in boardrooms but anxiety among workers who fear their jobs could disappear. Yet investor and entrepreneurChris Camillobelieves one profession could become more valuable because of AI, not despite it.
Camillo predicts that 'AI translators' will emerge as one of the biggest career opportunities of the future. In his view, these professionals will act as the bridge between advanced AI systems and the practical problems businesses face every day. His comments arrive as firms across the UK, Europe, and the US continue to invest heavily in artificial intelligence while still struggling to understand how to apply the technology effectively.
Camillo argues that companies do not simply need engineers who can build AI systems. Instead, they need people who understand both business operations and the capabilities of artificial intelligence. He describes AI translators as professionals who can identify problems inside a company and determine whether AI can solve them faster, cheaper, and more efficiently.
'I think every company in the world needs an AI translator,' Camillo said. 'Someone just to be that medium between the world of AI and all of their problems.'
According to Camillo, these professionals would not operate as traditional prompt engineers. Their role would go far beyond writing instructions for chatbots or language models. Instead, they would examine workflows, assess inefficiencies, and identify whether AI tools could reduce costs or improve productivity.

Many companies are still uncertain about how to use AI systems effectively. Artificial intelligence tools now exist for marketing, logistics, finance, customer support, and recruitment. Yet business leaders often struggle to decide which systems are genuinely useful and which are driven by hype. That uncertainty has increased demand for specialists who can translate technical capabilities into practical business decisions.
The demand for AI expertise has grown sharply since the release of generative AI platforms such as OpenAI's ChatGPT and similar products from rivals, including Google and Microsoft. Businesses now face pressure from investors and competitors to adopt AI quickly. At the same time, many executives remain unsure where to begin.
Some companies have invested heavily in AI projects with limited results. Others fear they could fall behind if they move too slowly. Industry recruiters and technology consultants have increasingly described AI integration and advisory roles as a growing area of demand.
Camillo believes AI translators could eventually become central figures inside businesses, much like IT managers and digital transformation specialists did during earlier technological shifts. The role may also appeal to workers outside engineering backgrounds. Professionals with experience in operations, sales, finance or marketing may be well placed to understand both business challenges and AI solutions.
