Resumen de Now what?: A fresh look at language technologies and resources for translators and interpreters
Gloria Corpas Pastor, Fernando Sánchez Rodas
This chapter provides a brief outline of language technologies applied to translation and interpreting with a view to identifying challenges and research opportunities. Section 1 covers new trends within the automation of processes, the integration of language technologies in translators and interpreters’ workflows and industry demands. Section 2 moves on to other relevant technology-based resources for oral and written mediation, including new types of corpora for interpreting, computer-assisted interpreting tools (CAI) or cloud interpreting, among others. Section 3 delves into the concept of ‘tech-savviness’ and adoption of technology among language service providers (LSPs). Final thoughts are presented as a conclusion in Section 4.
