I am the Director of an online Master’s program in Translation at a time when neural networks, AI technologies, and Large Language Models (LLMs) are transforming the industry. These rapid changes have required us to adapt the way we teach, since the Master’s program I am honored to lead started its activities nearly 20 years ago, in a very different context. Today, however, genuine innovations are often surrounded by so much hype that it can be difficult to distinguish reality from marketing. How should we steer our teaching?

Branding for freelancers? Isn’t branding something for big companies, corporations, and institutions? The short answer is no.  Branding is how you present and position yourself;  it combines your image, message, tone, values, and the feeling that you want people to associate with your work.  And yes, it can absolutely influence your freelance career.

We all know the industry is going through a difficult phase. In my eyes, this is essentially due to clients, agencies and freelancers all having different views on how the technological advances should be put to good use, and who should benefit from them.
