Dear colleagues,

I am a doctoral researcher at the University of Geneva's Faculty of Translation and Interpreting (Transius Centre), researching how machine translation and AI are impacting legal translators in the private sector. The aim of the study is to better understand how these technologies are influencing professional practice and legal translators’ perceptions, with a view to producing evidence of the current challenges and added value of human expertise in the field.

Dear colleagues,

I am a doctoral researcher at the University of Geneva's Faculty of Translation and Interpreting (Transius Centre), researching how machine translation and AI are impacting legal translators in the private sector. The aim of the study is to better understand how these technologies are influencing professional practice and legal translators’ perceptions, with a view to producing evidence of the current challenges and added value of human expertise in the field.

If you work in legal translation (freelance or in-house) and have experience with MT/post-editing, I would love to hear your views! The survey is anonymous, takes about 15 minutes, and is available in English, French and Spanish.

Survey in French:

Survey in Spanish:

If you have any questions about the study, feel free to reach out at [email protected].

Thank you very much for your time, your input would really help.

Kind regards,
María José Rubiales ▲ Collapse

Re: English-Indonesian legal MT and liability with the human Oct 7

Thank you for running this. From the English-Indonesian side, MT has become reasonably fluent for routine contract boilerplate, but it still mishandles civil-law terminology, notarial formulas and the gap between common-law concepts and Indonesian legal equivalents, often confidently. In practice, post-editing legal MT takes nearly as long as translating, and the liability stays with the human. I'd be very interested to see the results broken down by language pair and legal system.

An ideal summary, nothing to add, thanks.

impact of AI in legal translators Oct 9

The law firms I used to work for in the US and Japan now use only AI and I have left the profession.
