The value of AI in the market could cross the barrier of 300 billion US dollars in 2025.
More than 40 percent of consumers believe that Artificial Intelligence improves their lives in some way.
Spanish is the official language of 21 countries, that is, 7.8 percent of the global population or 6.4 percent of world GDP.
A few days before the end of 2022, the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) defined the “artificial intelligence” as the word of the year, considering that it was the best semantic milestone for the construction of the “digital dialect” that is expected in 2023.
This was part, like every year, of an analysis and choice of words according to their uses and sociocultural anchors at a certain time or media relevance; For this reason, together with the term of technological evolution, 12 more words arrived that defined 2022, such as “Ukrainian”, “inflation” Y “ecocide”.
And it is that 10 years ago the RAE choose the most used words in Spanish in a global context of 12 months, for example, in recent years words such as “selfi” (2014), “refugee” (2015), “populism” (2016), “aporofobia” (2017), “microplastic” (2018), “emojis” (2019), “confinement” (2020) and “vaccine” (2021).
With more than 300 years ensuring the correct use of the language, the Royal Spanish Academy has already exceeded 7 thousand articles in the latest update of the «Historical dictionary of the Spanish language».
This time, in 2022, the words that were repeated in various world contexts and with media and social frequency were: “apocalypse”, “cryptocurrency”, “diversity”, “ecocide”, “gas pipeline”, “gigafactory”, “flu”, “inflation”, “artificial intelligence”, “sex-doping”, “bumping” Y “Ukrainian”.
Artificial Intelligence (AI), word of the year that drives the “digital dialect” of 2023
The Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) announced this Thursday, December 29, that the term “artificial intelligence” would be the “word of the year” with which a social, economic, technological and evolutionary trend would be remembered and continued.
However, this is due, in large part, to the weight that this construction of two words has worldwide, as the market and professionalism of this branch of information technology that is dedicated to the creation of systems capable of performing tasks that require human intelligence, such as pattern recognition, machine learning, and decision making.
However, the highest authority of the Spanish language recommended always write the expression “artificial intelligence” in lower casedespite the fact that the initials IA is written in capital letters.
And it is that for the RAE, this is only the beginning of what they consider the future of the “digital dialect”, which in 2023 will be more reflected with the advancement of technology and its applications in people’s daily lives.
For example, next year it is expected to develop several of the main points of the LEIA (Spanish Language and Artificial Intelligence) project, since for the Spanish language it is more than important that machines and technology use correct Spanish, thus avoiding distortion in mass of the terms.
And it is that, the idea is to generate a real “digital dialect” and based on the structured rules of Spanish, not an improvised dialect by the masses.
Likewise, in 2023 many other projects will be launched within the institution, so language lovers can look forward to the second edition of the “Pan-Hispanic Dictionary of Doubts” and some texts referring to classic works, as well as the Spanish-speaking world network in promotion of the “Historical Dictionary of the Spanish Language”. Perhaps the most anticipated thing that we will have to follow is the database in which work is being done to create a “Pan-Hispanic Dictionary of Legal Spanish” that helps all Spanish-speakers to understand the discipline.
