AI translations for Switzerland: efficient, precise, culturally adapted
As a multilingual and globally connected country, Switzerland faces the challenge of translating large volumes of text in different languages accurately and efficiently. AI translations offer companies, educational institutions and organisations a cost-effective and scalable solution to meet the growing demands. But how can these technologies be optimally utilised? What opportunities and challenges do they present? And how do you ensure that your content is not only linguistically but also culturally correct?

This combination of innovative AI and human expertise ensures that your translations are linguistically and culturally perfectly tailored to your target group – for the Swiss market and beyond.
AI translation methods
Two main methods are used for AI translations:
- Neural machine translation (NMT): This method uses neural networks to take into account the entire context of the sentence and delivers smoother and more accurate translations.
- Gene-AI-based translation: Advanced algorithms and large amounts of data are used to enable semantic and contextualised translations. These systems are constantly learning and improving.
These methods are particularly suitable for simple texts such as emails, standard business correspondence or internal communication. However, they are not suitable for legal or medical documents, marketing and advertising texts or literary works. These require precise terminology, specialised knowledge and a creative writing style, which AI systems are often unable to capture sufficiently. AI systems also harbour data protection risks, as the data entered is stored and used to improve the systems.
Conscious consideration of the possible uses and a targeted selection of the texts to be translated minimise risks and improve the quality of the translations. Let us advise you.
Opportunities and challenges of AI translations in Switzerland
AI translations offer numerous advantages such as fast processing of large volumes of text and considerable cost savings. In Switzerland in particular, with its national languages of German, French, Italian and English, AI systems enable efficient language coverage. They represent a cost-effective solution for many companies and organisations.
But there are also challenges: AI translations can be inaccurate for complex or contextual texts and have difficulty recognising cultural nuances and idiomatic expressions. Data protection is also an important factor, as many systems store input data in order to improve their algorithms. Therefore, sensitive information should only be processed with tested and secure tools.
How can you ensure that your data remains protected? Are AI translations the right choice for your company? Let us advise you on how to reap the benefits and minimise the risks.
