TransPerfect, a provider of language and AI solutions for global business, announced the launch of GlobalLink Live, an AI-powered interpretation and accessibility platform that enables users to choose a mix of traditional interpretation and AI voice-to-voice translation to engage with live speech.

With GlobalLink Live multilingual capabilities, audiences can consume live speech—whether as part of a large event, small group meeting, or one-on-one encounter—in their preferred language regardless of the source language. Created as a turnkey solution to facilitate better language access for in-person, hybrid, and remote events, GlobalLink Live facilitates multiple options from traditional human interpretation to AI voice technology. Independent of location, subject area, budget, or local interpreter availability, event organizers have multiple options to ensure they can maximize engagement with their audiences.

Meetings and gatherings with attendees from differing language backgrounds, as well as service industry interactions between agents and customers who speak different languages, can all be facilitated through GlobalLink Live. The self-service platform can be used for on-site and remote speakers, and can be accessed by audiences attending in person or viewing remotely. Program owners can choose to deliver content via simultaneous human interpretation, live subtitles, or using AI-powered voice-to-voice dubbing technology.

Today, we announced the general availability of Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant for enterprise customers. Acrobat AI Assistant allows you to interact with your documents in Acrobat for quick answers and one-click summaries to create impactful content and improve productivity. It brings together our deep knowledge of PDF documents with our proprietary technology for document processing.

• For Adobe Acrobat’s generative AI features, we currently leverage Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Service, which is contractually prohibited from manually reviewing or training its LLM on Adobe customer data.
• We leverage Microsoft Azure OpenAI’s content filtering service to moderate hate, sexual, violent, and self-harm content.
• The Acrobat AI Assistant only looks at the information presented in the document and no other external sources such as the web, email or stored content in other locations are referenced.
• Adobe’s custom attribution engine and proprietary AI generates citations so users can easily verify the source of answers from within the user-provided documents.
• The AI Assistant responses are for individual consumption only. Even responses on shared documents on web are only accessible to that user.
• User content, prompts, and responses are encrypted in transit. At rest, data stored by the Acrobat Generative AI Service is encrypted using SHA-256.

Today we’re announcing the next wave of enhancements to Google Workspace, starting with Google Vids, our new AI-powered video creation app for work. Vids will sit alongside our other productivity tools like Docs, Sheets, and Slides. Vids is being released to Workspace Labs in June.

We’re also announcing two commercial offers that allow you to bring AI-powered meetings and messaging, as well as AI-powered security, to everyone in your organization, each for $10 per user, per month. In addition, Gemini is coming to Google Chat in preview, giving you an AI-powered teammate to summarize conversations, answer questions, and more. And finally, we’re making it easy for organizations to extend the power of their data and custom AI models by using Vertex AI with Workspace as a platform, enabling next-generation workflows that are built right into Docs, Gmail, and other Workspace apps.

By using Model Garden on Vertex AI, you can choose the right model for your needs from more than 130 options, and the Workspace add-on framework can allow you to bring that custom agent into the productivity apps you use everyday in Workspace, streamlining workflows, and enhancing team collaboration.
