DESCRIPTION:‘Gearing up 2.0 - Practical tips to survive and thrive in the a
 ge of Gen AI’ – facilitated by Jenny Zonneveld\nThe language profession is
  undergoing major changes\, largely due to the advent of Generative AI. It
 ’s affecting the whole profession\, from editors to translators and from c
 opywriters to proofreaders: Gen AI claims to have solutions for everyone\,
  and many clients think they can manage without trained language professio
 nals: we’ve all seen the results\, some acceptable\, some make us laugh.\n
 It's quite easy to spot texts written or translated by AI. People who don’
 t know any better think these texts are ‘good to go’ and don’t even ask a 
 professional linguist or native speaker to take a look. But we know that A
 I generated texts are repetitive\, bland\, and lack creative appeal\, and 
 that Gen AI translations are often inaccurate and inconsistent.\nOn the ot
 her hand\, some Gen AI tools can save us time\, just as our favourite edit
 ing and translation tools do. Despite these developments\, there is still 
 a huge market for us language professionals.\nThis mini workshop is design
 ed for all language professionals at any stage of their career who want to
  survive and thrive in the age of Gen AI. We’ll look at the skills and qua
 lities that language professionals need and the practical exercises will h
 elp you start adapting your working practices and business model. You will
  leave knowing how to continue moving your business forward.\nPlease note:
  this meeting will not be recorded.\n\nDate: Friday 14 November 2025Time:
