I'll have the privilege of speaking at the #CELTCON2023 conference Toronto Metropolitan University about the lessons we've learned from developing and delivering a #t9n #dictation training course. Do we ALL need to #learn, #unlearn and #relearn in the #mobile, #ubiquitous and #AI era?

"Data has been actively created by skilled people and that gets lost in all the discussion. #Data is being mined, harvested as if it was some kind of natural resource." Such an insightful webinar on "#Machinetranslation literacy in the age of #AI" with #LynneBowker! 🙏 #NMT #LLM

75 km challenge met, mission accomplished, fundraising goal DOUBLED! 🏆🚴‍♂️($1000+) Thanks to the generous donors who believed in the cause #bikeforbrainhealth in support of Baycrest Foundation, and dedicated to #LanguageProfessionals #BrainHealth & #wellbeing. Join me in 2024!

Today LITHME we are discussing languages endangerment and vitality. Good reminders that when we talk about languages in the human-machine era, we are often talking from a Global North, resource-intensive, English-speaking, perspective. #LITHME

#EAMT2023 is being kicked off by the Translators and Users Research track and Dr. Sheila Castilho presenting research about #MT, context and #LLMs.

"Differentiating useful from useless data will be difficult. It’s been a problem for [#MachineTranslation (MT)] developers scraping #multilingual data from the web for some time. Can we avoid the ouroboros effect of feeding #AI tools their own output?" — Joseline

🎙️🎙️‘The Language of AI’ by The ADAPT Centre is on #SoundCloud on.soundcloud.com/qqk8e Excellent insight by Professors Vincent Wade and John Kelleher! A must-listen podcast for anyone interested in the present and future of #GenAI.

It's never too early to wake up (4:30) to discuss dictation with #translators and language professionals. It's not too late to wake up (2023), as an industry, and leave the keyboard and the mouse behind, in the age of #GenAI #SpeechTech. Tnx Chartered Institute of Linguists Translating division.

[*New Publication Alert 📢*] Did you know that #dictation is a multi-millenary practice that can be traced back to the early days of written #literature in #Mesopotamia ~ 4000 years ago? 🗣 ✍ revistes.uab.cat/tradumatica/ar… #tradumatica #translationtechnology #humantranslation #speech
