SUMMARY:“Is It Good?”: AI Tools\, the Practice of Translating\, and Intercultural Communication.
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Russell Valentino explores translation as a distinct practice that provides key insights into uses of generative AI. As a mode of writing at the interstices of analysis and “pure” creativity\, translation combines research and invention with the need to convey messages across linguistic\, historical\, and cultural boundaries in a manner that is not just accurate but also effective. How do we recognize when we’ve failed or succeeded? How do we predict that one strategy is more or less likely to move our intended audience? The answers to such questions help to provide a limit case for the use of generative AI not just in translating but in other areas of inquiry as well. \nDr. Valentino’s talk will be followed by Q&A with the audience. Co-sponsored by the First Year Seminar Program\, the Institute for Global Engagement\, and the Global Languages & Cultures Program at Saint Michael’s College.
