"Rather than compete with AI, the human translators and Language Specialists of the future have to combine languages and tech. The evolution of this profession forces us to expand our expertise and broaden our horizons with different skills than before: expertise in #AI, #promptengineering, #coding, and most importantly #adaptability and #resilience." - Andreea Mihaela Iacob If you weren't in Brussels, you can revisit Marina Pantcheva, PhD's talk at the #2024TEF conference on the role of linguists in the future of AI here: https://lnkd.in/dutuHT5g Find out more about the future of human-machine collaboration: https://hubs.ly/Q02HM7FQ0
Yesterday morning’s #keynote speech by Marina Pantcheva, PhD Director Linguistic AI Services at RWS Group was truly enlightening for me as well as for many others, I believe! She explored the role of #AI in the future of linguists. As many young professionals, I had a pessimist perspective, because I thought that AI is capable of replacing the human #translator in a few years time. Whether this will happen or not, I do not know, as I am no fortune teller (if you were there, you know!), but what I do know for sure is that AI cannot (yet!) replace the human in some areas such as creativity, memory, accountability, common sense and reasoning, what it can do is that it can imitate all these human aspects, but will never be as authentic as us. So, rather than compete with it, the human translators and linguists of the future have to combine languages and tech. The evolution of this profession forces us to expand our expertise and broaden our horizons with different skills than before: expertise in AI, #promptengineering, #coding, and most importantly #adaptability and #resilience, key words that will help us thrive for the future! #2024TEF #translation | #multilingualism | #artificialintelligence | #machinetranslation
