In the weeks since we last surveyed the evolving realm of language AI, machine translation continues to advance innovative trends in localization gaining industry focus this month, while startling experimental breakthroughs are again challenging assumptions about what this class of technologies can achieve – now, without even a preliminary training, and across languages it has […]

As a delivery model for cloud-based software, SaaS is dedicated to making digital tools more accessible than ever before by providing them as web-based services, but delivering on that commitment can be just as much a matter of quality SaaS localization as of original product development. When so much of the appeal of any digital […]

Multimedia translation covers a wide gamut, from marketing videos and training modules to streaming entertainment, making multilingual video content a longstanding business need across industries and sectors of all stripes. What some might not realize, though, is the sheer pressure facing groups using services like subtitling and dubbing to move content across borders, as VoD […]

As the ancient art of telling one person what another just said, interpreting between languages is as much a part of cross-border communication as written translation, but that doesn’t necessarily make it impervious to change. Even for communicating within domestic markets, the innumerable ways that people and businesses rely on multilingual interpretation are experiencing a […]

When it comes to translating software interfaces for users in different languages, machine translation (MT) is a well-established tool for scaling up linguists’ productivity, but what happens when a software product comes equipped with an engine ready to do its own translating? This week, Meta AI is breaking headlines with the claim it has delivered […]

CSOFT is back from Chicago this week following a successful exhibit at the DIA 2022 Annual Meeting, where the team joined some of the most innovative companies in global and decentralized clinical trials, patient recruitment, and patient education to represent CSOFT Health Sciences, leaders in medical translations for the quickly changing drug industry. Exhibiting at […]

In a world of streaming entertainment and serious innovation, where do game localization and experimental language AI cross paths? This week, one common theme appears to be the distant past, as yet another natural language processing (NLP) algorithm tackles an ancient language without modern corollaries to see what AI can reveal about its remnant hieroglyphs […]

As inflation dampens commercial prospects across industries and sectors, it is difficult to think that demand for financial services would remain aloft, but how the current economy is impacting communication areas like investment banking translation may yet be another story. With some facing potentially greater needs for credit line extensions and other means of navigating […]

Those who follow the CSOFT Communications blog are familiar with the myriad and interesting problems born from language AI models trained on the most abundant data resource available: what people say online. What people provide in textual volume, they do not necessarily match in thoughtful consideration, and while the gains for machine learning have been […]

When language AI talks, should it have to explain itself? Those keeping up with the latest applications of natural language processing (NLP) and natural language generation (NLG) may have noticed a subtle shift in the ongoing discussion of ethics surrounding algorithms like GPT-3, which has long dwelt on whether AI will channel our more malevolent […]

Language AI and translation technology are constantly improving, but when are advances in technologies like natural language processing (NLP) truly significant? With a steady stream of news forthcoming, keeping a view of the bigger picture can be a challenge, while the vocabulary of algorithmic concepts that developers are tinkering with is more elaborate at each […]
