In simulated English and Spanish clinical encounters, ambient AI scribes propagated interpreter errors into clinical notes, with patterns varying by speaker role and error type. These findings highlight the need for further evaluation of AI-scribe performance in multilingual and interpreter-mediated clinical care.
