Inhalt

Cloud platforms and generative AI promise speed, automation, and efficiency. At the same time, they quietly shift something fundamental: meaning is increasingly generated, reformulated, and scaled by systems. In this talk, two long‑term terminologists, both active members of the Deutsche Terminologie-Tag e.V. (German Terminology Association) for many years, take a critical yet constructive look at this shift. We show why terminology has always been more than a support tool for translators, a role that remains important today. With the rise of AI, terminology is experiencing a renaissance: not because it is new, but because AI fundamentally depends on explicit, structured meaning. We explore where AI can support terminology work, and, just as importantly, where terminology must support AI by acting as a linguistic and semantic guardrail. This talk introduces an educated approach to AI: AI as a tool, humans as the responsible decision‑makers. The session informs, encourages, and strengthens professional confidence, while involving the audience in reflecting on responsibility, trust, and meaning in AI‑supported environments.
