SUMMARY:We Need to Talk About Machine Translation | Autumn Workshop 2020
DESCRIPTION:We Need to Talk About Machine Translation\nwith Ramon Inglada\n
 A tool to bring about global mutual understanding and peace\, or a force f
 or evil designed to make human translators (and interpreters) redundant? W
 hatever your view of Machine Translation (and even if it lies somewhere be
 tween those two extremes)\, Ramon Inglada is the expert you were waiting f
 or to tell you about the latest advances and provoke a debate on the merit
 s and demerits of working with it. Break-out rooms will allow everyone to 
 voice their opinion.\n\nForced online by Covid-19\, and into an afternoon 
 slot by the central ITI AGM which starts at 10am on the same date\, our tr
 aditional Autumn Workshop takes a distinctly technological feel. Despite t
 he modernity it still features every Scotnetters' favourite part of the me
 eting\, however: the Zoom call will open 30 minutes before the presentatio
 n is due to start to allow you to turn up with your post-lunch coffee in h
 and and catch up with friends and colleagues after the summer that never w
 as.\nAbout Ramon Inglada\nA Scotnet member\, Ramon Inglada is Assistant Pr
 ofessor in Spanish and Translation Technologies at Heriot-Watt University'
 s School of Social Sciences – Languages and Intercultural Studies\n\n 	T
