Sydney, Australia - September 19, 2023 /PressCable/ —
Linguistico confirmed in a recent interview with Metro Cities Media that with the advent of AI, the translation of legal document by industry experienced human translators is now becoming essential for firms.
The terminology in a legal document can be very specific and relate to particular legal contexts. This means literal translations may not always be clear and the use of AI software has been shown to have the potential to significantly compound the problem. This is because AI can’t replace the thought, understanding and expertise of a human translator with years of experience in the legal industry when undertaking the translation process.
Adrienne Sycamore, Principal of Linguistico said this when interviewed by Metro Cities Media, “We have over 15 years of acquired expertise working with an array of industries and the growing number of languages used in Australia. It has become apparent in recent years that the local legal fraternity are needing our assistance more than ever with the correct translations into or from foreign languages due the growing number of foreign entities now operating here.” She went on to say, “There has been an explosion of AI technology and it is impacting all forms of business and industry, however, the use of AI to replace a human translator is not only dangerous, but unwise, when a document is being used for legal purposes. Many times, a lot is at stake and its imperative that the correct interpretation is captured in the translation to avoid costly errors.”
The other factor that needs to be considered with AI potentially being used for legal translations is, if an error was to occur then the question arises of who becomes responsible. Using AI for complex legal matters, especially if the documentation is being used for official legal purposes, demands careful consideration.
Linguistico translation agency started as a specialist legal translation company by a former Allens Linklaters lawyer in 2008 in order to match the growing translation needs of the legal industry in Australia. Since then they having grown significantly and now have a team of highly trained translators that can be trusted with the most complex legal documents.
