The messages were particularly abundant in the run-up to ATA\u2019s 63<sup>rd<\/sup> Annual Conference in Los Angeles; indeed, one member called for a \u201cTown Hall\u201d to discuss the future (and fate?) of the German-English\/English-German translation and interpreting market in the face of so many members facing lulls in their business, which they in many cases attributed to their clients\u2019 discovery and enthusiastic use of machine translation.<\/p>\n<p>When it proved impossible to add a \u201cTown Hall\u201d to the conference program at short notice, GLD Administrator Karen Leube and Assistant Administrator Robin Limmeroth set out to find a way to poll GLD members about the state of their business and share outcomes with the ATA Board. When the opportunity arose to submit a proposal for a \u201cProfessional Forum\u201d at ATA\u2019s 64<sup>th<\/sup> Annual Conference in Miami, Karen jumped on it. The Professional Forum is a new session format launched at the latest conference which divisions can use to address pressing topics interactively.<\/p>\n<p>To prepare for the Professional Forum, we set up a survey that ran from August 1, 2023, to September 25, 2023. The plan was to collate the survey results, report them to the Professional Forum attendees and use them as a starting point for discussion \u2013 and ultimately share the outcomes with ATA\u2019s Board of Directors.<\/p>\n<p>The survey included eight questions on the following topics:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Employment status (self-employed or in-house employee)<\/li>\n<li>Services offered<\/li>\n<li>Client locations<\/li>\n<li>Respondents\u2019 field(s) of work<\/li>\n<li>Change in income<\/li>\n<li>Reasons for decrease in income<\/li>\n<li>Reasons for increase in income<\/li>\n<li>Open-ended question encouraging respondents to share experiences, strategies, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Kathryn DeVito at ATA Headquarters prepared the survey and sent it to all GLD members. In all, 117 members responded, constituting around 20% of the total membership. Kathryn collated the results, which Robin summarized for the Professional Forum presentation. Experienced market researcher that she is, Robin also collated all of the \u201cverbatims\u201d and included them in the <a href=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/GLD-Professional-Forum-slides.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>presentation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> in the <a href=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/gld-archive\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">GLD Archive<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Professional Forum took place on Saturday morning of ATA\u2019s 64<sup>th<\/sup> Annual Conference, immediately after the Language Technology Division\u2019s Professional Forum, which specifically addressed the impact of AI and machine translation on ATA members\u2019 T&amp;I business.

While demographic data was not collected in the survey, a number of comments indicated that respondents were either retired or planning to retire (anyway).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Breakout groups<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5700\" src=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-2000x1500.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-230x173.jpg 230w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-350x263.jpg 350w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/1000022855-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The main part of the Professional Forum was devoted to discussions in breakout groups addressing the following questions:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Discuss the current state of your business. How have you adapted to changing circumstances?<\/li>\n<li>How can ATA support you in future-proofing your business?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Groups were asked to appoint a note-taker and spokesperson and to report to the main group at the end of the session.

That address the trends and how to future-proof your business.<\/li>\n<li>Help us apply and use new MT\/AI tools, similar to how ATA responded to the fever pitch around CAT tools in the past 25 years. Perhaps OpenAI would send a speaker to our virtual conference? Perhaps RWS Trados can talk more about MT plug-ins.<\/li>\n<li>Help us professionalize the profession. The minority of ATA members who attend the conference are likely those who are more engaged, proactive, and successful. They are destined for better things than cleaning up robot droppings! So focus conference sessions more on helping us penetrate the (still quite enormous) premium market, which deals in texts that will actually be read and for which intelligent, engaged, creative, skilled human translators are desperately needed. Also: Continue to elevate the image of the industry through public relations and continue to promote the value and visibility of ATA Certification.<\/li>\n<li>Spur conference exhibitors into conducting more active outreach and hosting interactive forums in the exhibit hall.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Outcomes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While the 60 minutes allotted for the Professional Forum only allowed us to scratch the surface of the rapid developments and our attempts to master them, the chance to meet as a division and compare notes was invaluable. The GLD administrators will be sending our \u201cwish list\u201d to the ATA Board and will also share it with the other division administrators in the near future. Thank you very much to the conference organizers for providing us this opportunity.
