Large language models (LLMs) could prove to be valuable assets for linguists in the context of language processes. But what exactly are the advantages of this technology?

Few words have characterised the year 2023 as much as “AI”.

And the initial hype has long since died down. Is STAR not a little late to the party here? In short, the answer is no – because we’ve been partying along with everyone else the whole time!

For over 40 years, the “Mobil ohne Auto” campaign (Get moving without a car) has called for sustainable alternatives to cars and enjoys great popularity thanks to its numerous events.

Can you juggle? With three balls? No?
A good translation project manager can.
