Translation tax

Moura calls the cost of crossing from the person who understands the work to the person who can implement it the 'translation tax' in AI projects.

Behind the viewpoint

Translations are for reading; original excerpts remain the evidence.

The People Who Understand Don't Build. The People Who Build Don't Understand. | CrewAI

Original excerpt

At the big company, that cost had a name nobody said out loud: alignment. Alignment, alignment, T&E, training. In the move between countries, it has a different name: documents, and then more documents. In AI projects, it has a name I only learned after joining CrewAI. The translation tax.
