AI Translation Slam

Join the sequel to the 2023 AI translation slam: (Wo)man vs Machine where texts are translated simultaneously by human translators and AI.

Since last year, the machines have evolved: it is now time to retest them and see if they can cope equally well with texts in German and French.

For this second edition, two experienced translators, Joanna Pawulska Saunders and Aubrey Botsford, will compete against machine translation systems expertly operated by Daniela Ford. After each round, the audience gets to vote for the best translation. Humans vs Machine, who will triumph this time?

The event will be moderated by Christophe Fricker, at the Goethe-Institut on Wednesday 2 October from 7pm to 8.30pm.
