Managing the Dynamics of NMT Implementation with Hybrid Intelligence
Tuesday, April 25 2023 from 9:00am – 5:30pm
AI is transforming the language industry. In this class, Dr. Wang will show how human intelligence and artificial intelligence can co-exist and function in our work as localizers. Since the launch of ChatGPT and the rise of pre-trained large language models (LLMs), humans have made great strides in building generative AI systems that aim to perform multiple natural language tasks, including machine translation.
This class aims to build the connection between intuitive localization practices and MT/AI applications. Participants will take a closer look under the hood of NMT technology as well as MT-related NLP tasks. The sudden ascension of ChatGPT comes with many new obstacles and possible solutions, Dr. Wang will contrast generative AI technology with NMT and guide participants to the holy grail of best practices.
Having worked in both academia and industry, Dr. Peng Wang recognizes key insights and trends spanning both worlds. This course helps you further explore NMT and generative AI use cases, pioneers AI control measures and highlights the value added by humans within and beyond the localization process.
