How computational linguistics went from Cold War communications to transforming enterprise work
The Cold War is often cited as the starting point for the scientific work around natural language processing (NLP) that has since evolved into computational linguistics, an artificial intelligence (AI) technology now in commercial use. The story goes, the phrase “The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak” once used to test the work that had been done, translated to Russian and back to English as “The vodka is strong, but the meat is rotten.” To say this technology’s earliest forms had challenges is quite an understatement, but the reality is we have come a long way since then. Businesses today inform risk, operations, and performance decisions in the same way we had, with limited success back then, aspired to inform diplomatic, political, and military actions. This article explores the evolution of computational linguistics, and provides current and practical applications for enterprises today.
