The Centre for Translation Studies (CTS) at the University of Surrey invites applications for a place in our stand-alone course on "Introduction to Artificial Intelligence for Translators and Interpreters". This course introduces students to the fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its applications in the field of translation and interpreting. The course covers a wide range of topics, from the basic concepts of AI to more advanced areas and techniques including machine learning, large language models (LLMs) and LLM leveraging and customisation of automatic speech recognition (ASR) engines. Students will be taught different prompting techniques which allows them to interact with LLMs like ChatGPT, so they can develop advanced problem-solving skills.
Students will tackle AI-related tasks that are relevant in the fields of translation and interpreting, such as machine translation, customisation of ASR engines and the use of machine assistance in tasks requiring creativity skills (e.g. transcreation). They will also explore the ethical implications of AI and the potential impact of AI on the future of the language industry. The module is offered in synchronous online mode. The module will run for 11 weeks starting on 23rd September. The tentative time slot is Tuesdays, 4-6pm UK time.
