DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Philipp Stöckle\n\nXXII EURALEX INTERNATIONAL CONGR
 ESS 2026: LEXICOGRAPHY IN THE AGE OF AI\nThe rapid development of artifici
 al intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP) has begun to tr
 ansform the ways in which lexicographic data are compiled\, analysed\, and
  presented. Large language models\, advanced corpus tools\, and other mach
 ine learning methods offer unprecedented opportunities to accelerate tasks
  such as the extraction of lexical information\, the induction of word sen
 ses\, or the drafting of definitions. They also make possible new forms of
  user interaction\, including conversational and personalized dictionaries
  that can adapt to different audiences or integrate multimodal content suc
 h as text\, sound\, and images. \nAt the same time\, these technologies p
 ose serious challenges that go beyond purely technical concerns. Automatic
 ally generated content raises questions of reliability\, bias\, and transp
 arency\, while the integration of opaque systems into lexicographic workfl
 ows risks undermining scholarly standards of quality and accountability. T
 he ecological impact of large-scale AI models must also be taken into cons
 ideration\, raising doubts about their long-term sustainability in resourc
 e-intensive projects such as lexicography. Finally\, the introduction of A
 I into the field invites reflection on the role of the lexicographer: how 
 can human expertise remain central when automation is increasingly pervasi
 ve\, and what kinds of collaborations between humans and machines are both
  effective and responsible? \nThe conference Lexicography in the Age of A
 I will provide a forum for discussing these promises and risks. We will br
 ing together professional lexicographers\, publishers\, researchers\, soft
 ware developers\, and anyone interested in dictionaries to consider both t
 he potential of AI for creating more dynamic\, interactive dictionaries\, 
 and the ethical and ecological responsibilities that come with it. \n\nht
