Show Notes

MT can draft fast, but it often hides meaning errors behind fluent prose.

In this session, Marco Baglioni demonstrates how modern LLMs, when used as judges rather than generators, deliver segment-level QA that identifies semantic shifts, enforces terminology (including inflections and multi-word terms), and reduces false positives on source/target inconsistencies.

We’ll cover a practical, CAT/TMS-friendly workflow: segment the text, preprocess it for context, run criteria-first prompts, and provide feedback on annotated XLIFF for focused post-editing.

Expect a pragmatic playbook: real examples, and what actually moves MTPE time.
