GAI enhances translation quality and efficiency, inaugurating a new chapter in translation. However, due to its limitations, the complexity of translation, and the uniqueness of Zhuang medicine, cultivating the critical thinking ability among talents in English translation of Zhuang medicine has become critically important. This study reforms the teaching content, instructional design, and evaluation of the course Computer-Aided Translation Technology, and constructs a teaching model to enhance the critical thinking abilities among talents in English translation of Zhuang medicine. The result shows that this model establishes a critically thinking-oriented teaching system, promotes interaction between humans and machines, teachers and students, and among peers, and improves students’ capabilities in translation, critical thinking, and social communication.
