The three German-language translators’ organisations IGÜ (Austria), A*dS (Switzerland) and VdÜ (Germany) have published a joint Open Letter and a Manifesto for Human Language, urging decision-makers to champion transparency and additional regulation of AI.
These publications are issued in response to concerns that AI-related developments recently have not received the attention they deserve from the German-speaking representatives to the EU.
The Open Letter and the Manifesto are published on our websites:
Austrian Association of Literary and Scientific Translators (https://www NULL.translators NULL.at/news/offener-brief-der-deutschsprachigen-uebersetzer%e2%88%99innenverbaende-zur-ki-verordnung/)
Autorinnen und Autoren der Schweiz (https://www NULL.a-d-s NULL.ch/)
VdÜ (https://literaturuebersetzer NULL.de/aktuelles/offener-brief-ki/)
