Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics

Directorate General for Translation (DGT) is the in-house language service provider (LSP) for the European Commission and one of the largest LSPs globally, managing all the text translation with an output of 2.3 million pages translated in 2024. We were invited to Luxembourg to run a three-day summer school on LLMs for them – or rather with them.
In the talk, we will highlight what we have learned during this hands-on event where we collaborated with experienced professional translators and engineers. Our goal was to make automatic translation with LLMs more reliable and tools more useful in their highly multilingual setting.

*** The talk will be delivered in person (MFF UK, Malostranské nám. 25, 4th floor, room S1) and will be streamed via Zoom. For details how to join the Zoom meeting, please write to sevcikova et ufal.mff.cuni.cz ***
