Other-revision 101: Don't be a jerk (and other tips) - Fall 2024

Take your revision skills to the next level, without making any enemies along the way!
Instructor: Ann Marie

Up there with unicorns, top-notch revisers master a powerful trifecta: language, research, and interpersonal intelligence.

They know when to wield the red pen and when to step back. They understand purpose, nuance, and risk. And they can justify their changes in a way that brooks no argument.

But today, there’s a fourth player in the room. Artificial intelligence.

Clients are using it. Agencies are using it. Translators are experimenting with it. And revisers? We’re often the ones cleaning up after it.

This workshop will teach you the principles, skills, and judgment of the expert reviser—a role that now requires equal measures talent, tact… and technological discernment.

We’ll talk about how to spot AI-generated output, how to revise it, and how to speak to clients about it in a way that protects relationships and positions you as a strategic professional—not a reactive critic.

Because in 2026, revisers aren’t just polishing text.

They’re safeguarding quality.

After taking this workshop, you will be able to:

• Master the layers of bilingual revision, including AI-assisted workflows

• Judge quickly whether a text is truly fit for purpose

• Spot the telltale signs of AI-generated output

• Revise AI drafts efficiently, without over-editing

• Defend your edits with authority and credible sources

• Talk to clients about AI with tact, clarity, and confidence
