As AI reshapes our understanding of language, we stand at a pivotal moment. Machines are no longer just translating words; they are comprehending context, nuance, and cultural complexity.

In this third GALA Innovates pilot session, we want to explore beyond technological hype. We will examine how AI is transforming communication.

Language technology is evolving rapidly, with AI and automation leading the way. Our guests Jochen Hummel and Bruno Bitter will explore how these advancements are shaping industries and redefining communication. Andrea Ballista and Dave Ruane will moderate the conversation.

Topics include:

  • Open orchestration and event-based automation
  • Challenges and advancements
  • Multilingual knowledge systems and knowledge graphs
  • New roles for linguists in the AI era
  • Strategies for transforming global communication workflows
