The abrupt move to an almost exclusive home-based working environment at the start of the Covid19 crisis resulted in a new work ethic: Back-to-back web calls from your living room or kitchen, across various web conferencing systems, and requiring to handle multilanguage interactions. The onsite in-person meetings were facilitated by the help of interpreters, traditional meeting notes redaction, and lengthy post-meeting analysis and review. In the new virtual environment, it is up to advanced language technologies powered by Artificial Intelligence to solve these issues.: Speech-to-text, neural machine translation and hybrid natural language understanding will automate complex human tasks and even replace the more repetitive processes, creating a „digital work companion” that can assist in the next fast-paced remote working environment challenges.
