Show Notes

In the interpreting market, there are two main artificial intelligence trends to highlight: machine interpreting and computer-assisted interpreting (CAI) tools. While Machine Interpreting and Computer-Assisted Interpreting may not be as mature as their cousins, machine translation and computer-assisted translation (CAT), the recent skyrocketing demand for remote interpreting services has fueled interest and investment into this space. 

Joining us today is the gang from KUDO. KUDO is a multilingual web conferencing platform with human-powered simultaneous interpreting. Stream real-time interpretation to your live conferences. Just recently they received 21 million in oversubscribed Series A funding. We have today Ewandro Magalhães (Former Chief United Nations Interpreter and current Chief Language Officer), Dr. Claudio Fantinuoli (Researcher at Mainz University and Head of Innovation), and Barry Slaughter Olsen (25-year veteran interpreter, Professor of Interpretation at Middlebury Institute of International Studies, and VP of Client Success).
