Tokyo's "Cultural Bridge" agency offers "context packages" explaining untranslatable concepts (e.g., Finnish "sisu") during negotiations. Their interpreters train in behavioral psychology to convey subtext - something AI misses in 38% of cases according to MIT studies. The premium service costs 5x standard rates but prevents costly misunderstandings. Niche specialties like "medical empathy interpretation" (softening diagnosis delivery) prove AI can't replicate human nuance. Successful linguists now market themselves as "cultural navigators" rather than just word converters.
