​​Are you ready to witness the monumental revolution sweeping through the language and localization industries? The TAUS Annual Conference 2023 on 4-6 October in Salt Lake City, UT is your gateway to understanding and preparing for the vast changes brought by the GenAI revolution.

Join industry leaders, technologists, and innovators as they come together to explore the practical measures needed to embrace this transformative era of Large Language Models (LLMs). This year's theme, 'Change,' sets the stage for discussions that will shape the future of localization and language on a global scale, helping companies to unlock the full potential of AI. The stakes are high, and the opportunities are boundless. The conference is a "tabula rasa" moment, offering a unique opportunity to shape the future of the localization industry.

What can you expect?

The TAUS Annual Conference gathers around 150 people from all over the world, decision makers and thought leaders from the enterprise and buyer perspective, technology-focused language service providers but also more traditional language service providers, start-ups in the technology space, as well as a few academics, researchers and students. Divided over two days, we discuss the pressing topics on our minds with the invasion of Large Language Models.

MT in the Post-ChatGPT World - The Big Tech Perspective

Discover the game-changing role of LLMs in translation and the competition they pose to traditional Machine Translation (MT) value offering. MT authorities from major tech companies Microsoft, Google, Amazon and Meta reveal how GenAI's disruptive powers are reshaping the landscape entirely. Join discussions on whether LLM-enhanced MT or multilingual LLMs will dominate the future.

Localization Business Redefined

Understand how enterprises are redefining their localization strategies in the wake of AI-driven transformations. An MT-First Strategy is widely adopted, enabling them to translate everything, leading to a complete redefinition of the localization business from the enterprise perspective. Gain insights into the technological shifts that will drive the future of the language and translation industry from representatives at Dell, Amazon, Google, Uber, LinkedIn, AWS and Booking.

But also uncover the perspective of localization service and technology providers as they adapt their offerings to cater to the evolving demands of the AI-driven localization industry.
