Please join the National Center for Interpretation for a short discussion of the potential promise and perils of AI's impact on the fields of translation and interpreting. We know you are curious, maybe even anxious, so let's talk about it!
As technology advances and AI becomes increasingly entwined in all aspects of our professional lives, it is important for us to understand it and help guide its ethical and effective implementation. Among the topics we'll touch on in this roundtable:
- The positive aspects of AI
- The potential dangers of AI
- The effects AI has had on translation thus far
- The work of the SAFE-AI Task Force
- AI and language access in the courts
- AI and language access in healthcare
This event is free but limited to the first 450 registrants. It will also be livestreamed on NCI's Facebook page.
Join us!
