As a professional translation agency, Larina Translation is constantly looking for new technologies and tools to improve the quality and speed of its services. The question they ask themselves is: AI or a human interpreter? One of the most exciting and promising technologies in this field is artificial intelligence (AI) CHAT GPT. Using advanced language models and algorithms, AI can help translators work faster and more efficiently while providing more accurate and consistent translations.
AI or a human interpreter ?
AI has revolutionized many industries, including language. Interpreters, who translate conversations in real time, are professionals who are also facing the impact of AI on their profession. AI has the ability to analyze large amounts of data and provide instant translations with a high level of accuracy. This technology has significantly improved the speed and quality of translations and is already used in many contexts, including on online translation platforms.
However, this technology is not yet capable of completely replacing human interpreters. Interpreters play a crucial role in contexts where translation needs to be done with great accuracy and in complex situations, such as international conferences or business negotiations. Human interpreters can understand the nuances of language and idiomatic expressions, as well as the cultural and social contexts that influence conversations. Moreover, interpreters are often versatile professionals capable of translating in multiple languages and in different fields. The linguistic skills and specialized knowledge of interpreters allow them to provide a more accurate and complete translation than what AI can currently offer.
However, can AI be a useful tool for interpreters, allowing them to work more efficiently and faster? Interpreters can use voice recognition software to transcribe conversations quickly, allowing them to focus on translation. Real-time translation technologies can also help interpreters quickly understand the topics discussed during a conversation, which can enable them to provide a more accurate and faster translation.
In summary, the impact of AI on the profession of interpreters is significant but complex. While AI can provide fast and accurate translations, it cannot completely replace human interpreters who possess linguistic skills and specialized knowledge that AI does not yet have. Interpreters can, however, take advantage of AI to improve their work and provide more efficient and faster translation services.
