Artificial Intelligence and Localization

Artificial intelligence is a game changer for the content industry in general and the language industry in particular, in terms of both technology and services. Unsurprisingly, it has had a vast and continued impact on localization people, processes, and technology. In the early days of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and machine translation (MT) offered a basic and automatic conversion of text, such as glorified versions of online dictionaries and glossaries. ML and MT are now propelled by neural networks that bring them closer to functioning and behaving like human brains. Although AI is getting closer to human behavior, it cannot mimic it fully, and therefore, it has not yet replaced human beings.
