Despite having attended it before, I found this session was definitely worth a second look, since Kerstin had added even more useful strategies. At the end of the session, numerous attendees offered their personal strategies and tips as well, which Kerstin was kind enough to collect on a slide to be shared with us later.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6273\" src=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-2000x1500.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-230x173.jpg 230w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-350x263.jpg 350w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gackle-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After a coffee break, the morning continued with a session by GLD member Kelly Neudorfer from the University of Hohenheim entitled <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NMT und AI in der Hochschul\u00fcbersetzung<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. During her presentation, Kelly covered the differences between AI and NMT and their processes, workflows, the various uses, and what we might expect from these tools in our work as university translators in the future. One important takeaway (among many): In the hands of professionals, these tools are time-saving, but laypeople (non-language-specialists) need training to be able to use them correctly, and it is up to us to teach them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6274\" src=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-2000x1500.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-230x173.jpg 230w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-350x263.jpg 350w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kelly-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The group took its annual group picture in the lovely May weather outside in the courtyard of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schlo\u00df<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, before enjoying an incredible catered lunch with plenty of opportunities to network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-6275\" src=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-450x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"373\" height=\"497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-450x600.jpg 450w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-1500x2000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-1000x1333.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-230x307.jpg 230w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-350x467.jpg 350w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-480x640.jpg 480w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/lunch-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 373px) 100vw, 373px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-6276\" src=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"563\" height=\"422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-2000x1500.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-230x173.jpg 230w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-350x263.jpg 350w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lunch-2-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The afternoon began with <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Impulse aus der Praxis \u2013 DeepL in Typo3<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a two-part session by University of Mannheim staffers. In the first part, Janna Ried shared her experiences testing the DeepL plugin for the TYPO3 web content management system from the point of view of a user who is not a translator.

One important example of this is that while we translators know that DeepL only thinks in sentences, most other users do not. Not everyone has an affinity for languages, nor do they view DeepL\u2019s output as critically as we translators do. It is essential that we offer these users our assistance, educate them, and share our knowledge of the tool\u2019s limits and pitfalls by, for example, holding introductory courses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6278\" src=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-2000x1500.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-230x173.jpg 230w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-350x263.jpg 350w, https:\/\/ata-divisions.org\/GLD\/wp-content\/uploads\/Analisa-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Re-caffeinated after a coffee break, we returned to the auditorium for a fishbowl discussion on <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wohin geht unsere Reise als Hochschul\u00fcbersetzer*innen?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A panel comprising Maike Schr\u00f6der (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), Katharine Schmidt (freelancer), Jutta K\u00fcnzner (University of Konstanz), Staci von Boeckmann (Technical University of Munich), Laura Cunniff (Europa-Universit\u00e4t Flensburg), and Sandra Lustig (Leibniz University Hannover) occupied the \u201cfishbowl\u201d chairs, with an empty chair at the end of the row that attendees could occupy whenever they wanted to ask a question or join the discussion.
