Project Karl Introduction Project Karl encompasses a series of human evaluation tasks designed to assess the quality of machine-generated text, primarily focusing on machine translation (MT) outputs and responses generated by Large Language Models (LLMs) or AI chatbots. The evaluations aim to provide detailed feedback on aspects like accuracy, fluency, and adherence to specific error taxonomies or guidelines, often within the context of internationalization (i18n) efforts.

TA/TC Certification Hi Lighthouse Annotator, If you are reading these instructions, you should have already taken LE Certification and either passed it or are waiting for the results. This means you should move on to TA/TC Certification as soon as possible. Once you have passed both LE and TA/TC Certification you will qualify for TA/TC Production. 😊
