🚨AI & Translation Tech – What’s Next? | Localization Fireside Chat Ep. 99

💡 How is AI transforming the translation industry? In this episode of the Localization Fireside Chat, I sit down with Jean-François Richard, CEO of Terminotix, to explore the evolution of translation technology, AI's role in localization, and the future of CAT tools. With over 40 years of experience, Jean-François shares insights on how Terminotix is pioneering modular translation solutions, AI-driven tools like TAIGR, and on-premise vs. cloud-based translation systems. We cover: ✅ The evolution of translation from typewriters to AI-powered tools ✅ How TAIGR (Translation AI Groundings Retrieval) enhances AI-powered translation ✅ Why modular and on-premise solutions matter for security-conscious enterprises ✅ AI’s role in reducing post-editing frustration for translators ✅ The future of machine translation and context-aware AI 💬 Do you think AI will ever fully replace human translators?
