• Exploration of the mutual benefits between Terminology Management (TM) and Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial Intelligence

My contribution benefits European SMEs and societies by advancing the integration of TM and AI, addressing challenges in communication, efficiency, and inclusivity while aligning with global standards like ISO. For SMEs, this project provides at this stage guidelines and recommendations for accessible AI techniques that are aligned with TM standards and practices, enabling cost-effective automation of terminology processes and improved productivity. SMEs in specialized sectors (e.g., biotech, fintech) and transversal fields (e.g. translation, interpretation) gain better insights for handling domain-specific terminologies, enhancing competitiveness in European and global markets.

For European societies, the project addresses ethical AI concerns like bias and transparency, ensuring responsible adoption in domains like healthcare, law, and education.

Digitisation of European Industry

For SMEs, this work reduces adoption barriers by clarifying AI-related standards (e.g. AI Act, GDPR, ISO/IEC), mapping practical use cases, and addressing gaps in tools, skills, and compliance knowledge. This helps smaller organizations implement trustworthy AI solutions aligned with European norms without needing large technical teams.

For European society, we foster ethical, transparent AI integration in sectors like healthcare, governmental services and justice. By involving diverse stakeholders, we ensure solutions address real needs, safeguard rights, and reflect EU values. Our approach supports innovation while reinforcing public trust in AI, making deployment more inclusive and impactful across communities.

• Support for activities as the Convenor of the ISO/TC 37/SC 3/WG 6 “Terminology Management and AI”
• Support for activities as the Project Leader of the TR “AI for Terminology Management”

Yes, my contribution positively impacts both European SMEs and societies. The Technical Report ISO/AWI TR 25896 provides practical, standards-aligned guidance on integrating AI into terminology workflows, helping SMEs—especially in language services, translation, and AI-adopt advanced technologies efficiently and responsibly. It lowers technical barriers, supports scalability, and promotes competitiveness across multilingual markets.

This initiative helped position WG 6 as an essential platform at the crossroads of AI and linguistic standardization. It supported Europe’s role in leading the development of valuedriven digital standards aligned with ethical principles, interoperability needs, and the goal of a multilingual digital space. For European societies, the TR encourages trustworthy and ethical AI adoption by addressing issues like explainability, data quality, and inclusiveness. It supports transparency and linguistic accuracy in domains such as healthcare, public services, and education, aligning with core European values and fostering public trust in AI-driven tools.
