Would learning languages be a waste of time?

As computers translate quickly and accurately, learning languages could end up being a waste of time? To waht extent do you agree or disagree?

Computer advances are always astonishing us, as it seems there is no end to what computers can do. One field that seems to be skyrocketing is language processing. There is no doubt that language translators are getting better day by day, some of them even can perceive and comprehend nuances and connotations that not even all language learners or even native people can grasp. Nonetheless, would it really replace a translator to a language learner?
Learning a language is not a piece of cake. Even learning the easiest language need practise and patience. As a result, computer scientists all around the globe are trying to make this easier, creating new language translators that could assist us anytime without having to endure hours and hours learning that by ourselves.

Nevertheless, languages are not just some bunch of words that you can throw at your computer and make a writing. Real-life situations makes the difference, as it would be strange to be with a translator anytime. In addition to that, spontaneity is needed when interacting with anyone, and culture is something that a translator cannot, being redundant, translate. A language is filled with its culture and its history, a slave of the past, though changing constantly.

I do agree that language translators are indeed a huge help, and sometimes you could even interchange a person with a translator if a conversation is truly trivial. However, how to express your feelings and all the cultural luggage that all languages have is not something to ignore.

Summing up, it is not that it is a waste of time at all learning a new language. Even though computer translator could make our life easier, they are not (so far) that powerful to just pressing a button and make them do all the dirty work. In fact, automatic speakers are still not that great to express any feeling (or even sometimes pronounce words correctly and having a correct intonation). Nonetheless, it is amazing how these translators are getting better every second and how AIs work, absorbing some knowledge of those who use them. Let us wait to see what they could be able to do in the future.

In addition to that, spontaneity is needed when interacting with anyone, and culture is something that a translator cannot, being redundant, translatean AI, cannot convey as well as a human.

"Redundant" isn't quite the right word here. It doesn't quite mean the same thing as 'useless', it tends to be used in more specific situations e.g. where something is no longer necessary because it is repetative or exceeds its purpose

A language is filled with its culture and its history, a slave of thend remains connected to a rich past, though it is also changing constantly.

Good writing. Maybe my corrections seem a bit harsh, but I went off your English level, so I think it's better that you get more tailored advice.
