Como educar clientes ideais

Hoje vamos tocar em um assunto que parece ser meio espinhoso para profissionais do idioma. Já ouvimos muitos colegas dizendo que educar clientes não é responsabilidade nossa; que devemos prestar os nossos serviços de acordo com as diretrizes e práticas da clientela. Porém, muitos de nós acreditamos que faz parte do processo conscientizar a clientela sobre o que a gente faz, porque muitos clientes não entendem bem como tradução e interpretação funcionam.

Como o ChatGPT pode nos ajudar

Hoje vamos falar sobre algo que está em alta: ferramentas de inteligência artificial. Mais especificamente, o ChatGPT. Parece até que o mundo virou de cabeça para baixo recentemente com a inovação! Apesar de muita gente achar que essa história é o fim do mundo, e que profissionais da língua logo serão substituídos pela tecnologia, nós precisamos na verdade olhar para esse advento com a mente aberta e de maneira otimista. Afinal, em vez de resistir aos avanços tecnológicos, deveríamos encontrar um jeito de usar ferramentas novas em nosso benefício para facilitar o nosso trabalho.

Neste episódio, vamos falar sobre os seguintes tópicos:

  • O que é o ChatGPT?
  • Como pode ajudar tradutores e intérpretes?
  • Como se compara com a tradução automática?
  • E, finalmente, o ChatGPT vai substituir seres humanos que traduzem e interpretam?

How Can ChatGPT Help Translators

Today we would like to talk about something very trendy: AI tools. More specifically, ChatGPT. The world has been taken by storm by this innovation, and, while there's always a lot of doom and gloom about technology replacing translators and interpreters whenever something new appears in the horizon, it's crucial that we, language professionals, face innovations with a clear mind and optimistic attitude. After all, instead of resisting technological advancements, we should find ways to use new tools to our advantage and make our work easier.

This episode will address the following topics:

What is ChatGPT?

How can it help translators and interpreters?

How does it compare to machine translation solutions?

And, will ChatGPT replace human translators and interpreters?

The Acquisition of Language Companies

The acquisition of small businesses owned by language professionals is a trend that has been growing in recent years. Language professionals such as translators, interpreters, subtitlers, and language consultants are often the sole providers of services related to language knowledge, and as such, their businesses are highly specialized and unique. But, what happens then for a language talent who sells their small business? Would they become an employee of their former company after such an acquisition? Could they retire comfortably? In this episode, we pose these and many other questions about this recent trend.

Just an Interpreter

Today we would like to feature an article written by Lynn Fors, certified healthcare interpreter working with English and Spanish in Kentucky. She is also the Executive Director of Access Language Solutions, a non-profit whose goal is to address the shortage of professional interpretation and translation services available to non-profit organizations and government entities in Lexington, Kentucky.

We asked Lynn's permission to read her article here to you, but you can also check out her original post here. You can also read a very interesting article published by the American Bar Association and titled "Language Justice During COVID-19," which she mentioned in her post. And, if you'd like to support the efforts of the Access Language Solution non-profit organization, visit their donation page.

Season 4 is coming up!

Are you ready for Season 4 of the Translation Confessional podcast?

We hope you are, because we have a couple of new things coming up this year.

First of all, we're changing our schedule to release new episodes every other Wednesday. We are also releasing the transcription of each episode on Kindle Vella, which as of now is only available for Amazon US users. That should hold you over before the actual book version comes out.

Oops! Did I say that aloud?

Apart from that, we are also working on the Brazilian version of our podcast! The title translates to "little corner for translators," but I'll let our hosts introduce themselves right now:

Olá! Meu nome é Ana. E eu sou o Marco. Somos a voz do Cantinho para tradutores.

Well, if you speak Portuguese, you can catch the Brazilian episodes every other Wednesday when the Translation Confessional episodes in English are taking the week off.

We can't wait to hear from you about the upcoming topics we'll be bringing up for discussion. Feel free to send us voice messages or emails using the links on this episode's description.

For now, our podcast team would like to wish you a very happy new year, full of interesting projects!

What is Internationalization?

Today we would like to talk about internationalization. Do you know what it is? Considering the name alone, you would think it is all about making something become "international," right? Well, yes, and no.

In previous episodes, our podcast host Rafa Lombardino talked about "domestication" and "foreignization" in literary translations. We also featured an episode about localization and transcreation. Make sure to check this episode's description for links to these past episodes.

However, there is more at play when it comes to internationalization. It's closely related to information technology, actually. In order to dig deeper into this subject, we're featuring yet another article by George Kasiouras, with Transifex. George’s article is great to help both translators and translation clients understand what internationalization means.

And, because we've adapted the original article to fit this format, you can read George's original blog entry here.
