What is language technology and how can technology support the preservation of endangered languages? Watch the first 639 talk with Sabine Kirchmeier, who has been working with languages and technology for more than 40 years, most recently as Director of the Danish Language Board and as chairman of the Language Technology Committee set up by the Minister of Culture.
The talk will touch on how technology can work as a tool to support the preservation of languages at risk of extinction with a focus on search engines and how digital translation tools, developed through machine learning, can efficiently analyze large language databases and contribute to their preservation.
