iFLYTEK Simultrans Supports the 3rd Yunnan International Communication Forum

On December 10, the 3rd Yunnan International Communication Forum, themed "Cooperation for a Shared Future: Exploring New Paths for International Communication," opened in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan.  The forum brought together over 200 scholars, officials, and media representatives from 21 countries and regions around the world. Participants engaged in discussions focused on three key topics: international communication strategies and value applications of world heritage, the power of images in international communication, and AI building a new ecosystem for international communication.

iFLYTEK provided simultaneous interpretation services for the forum, translating Chinese into Arabic, French, and other languages to facilitate understanding for attendees. During the research and tour sessions, iFLYTEK also provided machine translation services for the guides, translating Chinese into English.

At the "AI Building a New Ecosystem for International Communication" sub-forum, participants engaged in discussions and exchanges on topics such as the application of AI technology in international communication, AI and the ethics of international communication and AI building a new ecosystem for international communication.

Shao Qing, General Manager of Media Translation at iFLYTEK, highlighted the importance of both internationalization and localization of content in today's globalized world. He noted that while AI may have limitations in understanding the nuances of different regions' religions, politics, and cultures, human translators play a crucial role in post-editing and ensuring effective localization. iFLYTEK, he emphasized, offers not only machine translation but also professional human translation services to address the "last mile" challenge in translation.

As more and more Chinese companies seek to expand globally, they face numerous challenges in reaching international audiences.
