A few months ago, we were mesmerised by DALL·E 2’s ability to generate realistic images and art based on short descriptions. Now the people behind DALL·E 2 have gone viral again with the launch of ChatGPT.

Both DALLE and ChatGPT highlight the advancements in generative AI. Compared to predictive AI, generative models have impressively fluent results, however, their quality is harder to assess. How do we know if a blog generated with ChatGPT is correct or if it’s accurate? Most of the output is fluent, and tangentially relevant, however these systems are inherently unreliable, making errors of both reasoning and fact.

While machine translation models are inherently predictive, where both accuracy and precision are expected, generative models like ChatGPT can open up new avenues for translators and the localization industry.

The cost of creating content will drop, which means that even more content will be created. This creates a need for linguistic services for revising, adapting, and certifying the AI output. The concept of Machine Translation Post Editing will expand into linguistic validation, cultural adaptation, tone adjustment, fact checking and bias removal.

Another application is generating shorter or longer examples of the translation to help with formatting in-context. It is clear that NMT models will be complemented by LLMs for improving fluency or offering value added services like content insight.

While ChatGPT isn’t quite there yet – it’s certainly raised interest in conversational AI and the possibilities around the technology. But, is it going to transform the translation industry? No – it still has a long way to go. And until then it’s important to remember that only a robust, secure, and adaptable NMT solution can be trusted if you’re looking to engage with global audiences.


Depending on where you look, a coming recession is either inevitable or just very likely. One thing is clear: Economic uncertainty will be a fact of life in 2023 and it will affect just about every industry, including legal services. Looking ahead, “new law” solutions that offer flexible resourcing, such as legal marketplaces, may help fill many of the gaps that companies will experience during this uncertain future.

To get a full picture of the current legal services market, you need to look back to the current economic downturn’s precursor, the Great Resignation, during which employees left the legal industry in record numbers. For law firms and corporate legal departments alike, the result has been vacancies that are taking too long to fill in the face of a workload that is as busy as ever, despite fewer resources to rely on.

So, what is the impact of the Great Resignation and economic downturn on the legal industry, and how will those trends fuel the rise of alternatives to the traditional law firm model? For many companies, one answer to the current predicament has been to turn to legal marketplaces, staffing firms or alternative legal service providers (ALSPs) to address their needs quickly and cost-effectively.

Law firms have unique access to highly confidential client information and as a result, face a growing number of federal, regional and industry data protection and privacy requirements.
