The EUATC has teamed up with GALA to bring you a three-part webinar series exploring prompt engineering for Large Language Model (LLMs) to be delivered by Marina Pantcheva, RWS‘s Director of Linguistic Services.

General description

This 3-module webinar explores the art and science of prompt design for Large Language Models (LLMs), with focus on their usage in the translation and the localization industry.

Each module comprises a one-hour session that explores different aspects of LLMs —from understanding their inner workings, through strategies for optimizing prompts, to methods for evaluating LLM output.

Who is this for?

• Localization professionals and project managers
• Translators, post-editors, language specialists
• Content creators
• Localization vendor managers
• Educators and university lecturers in Translation Studies
• Product managers of AI tools to be used by linguists and translators

Session 1 | Thursday 09 January 2025 | 5pm – 6pm CET

Demystifying LLMs: What can they actually do well?  

This first session of the 3-module prompt design webinar introduces the mechanics of LLMs, explaining how their training and your prompts define the output. The session explores AI’s capabilities, limitations, and practical use cases, with special focus on localization, including:

• How do LLMs learn what they know?
• Machine learning specialists versus shamans: What’s the difference?
• LLM personalities: Why do we have our favorite LLM?
• Strengths and weaknesses of AI.
• Proven AI use cases in localization.
• Debunking myths about AI.
