An FOI study conducted at CTS Surrey by me and Sarah Herbert shows how all the NHS Trusts in England use translation and interpreting services and how they (do not) manage the use of MT in multilingual communication. See the project here shorturl.at/jt3lu and explore all links to data and reports.
Still thinking about what #AI will do to #translation and #interpreting? Join +200 professionals that took the #CPD courses created by CTS Surrey in collaboration with @iti-uk.bsky.social, and who have acquired an understanding of AI which cannot be found elsewhere.

In this day and age, living in a place that
- you like,
- you can afford,
- you can find a job,
- you have family/friends,
- you feel safe, and
- you *are* safe from natural disasters/bad laws/worse

is luxury and privilege. Almost no one gets to check all the boxes.

So maybe don’t be an asshole.

In this journey down memory lane, at my alma mater, I realised that I have a degree in #LLMs from the early 1990's.

Before you think we were way ahead of our time, note that at the time, LLM meant "Línguas e Literaturas Modernas" (modern languages and literatures).
