Abstract
Over the last few years, the scientific community has started to look at AI-based translation tools as possible solutions for promoting multilingualism in scholarly communication and thus establishing a more linguistically-inclusive landscape in academic research. But how sustainable are these technologies? What is their impact on multilingual communication? The workshop Behind the scenes of machine translation: for a sustainable, ethical and collaborative use of machine translation in multilingual scholarly communication aimed at providing insights into the main challenges related to AI sustainability, with a special focus on scholarly communication. Engaging with a diversity of potential users through interactive discussions and research data, the workshop highlighted the importance of skill-sharing and multi-stakeholder action to promote a sustainable and informed use of AI technologies within the scientific community and beyond.
