My freelance translation work is flexible and fits around my job as a university teacher. AdvertisementMarco Simões started using AI for translation in 2020. I decided to try out translation work on the side after someone at Intel suggested I work as a translator there. Using AI has meant my productivity has increased, and I can accept more jobs than I did in the past, but pay doesn't necessarily increase. Using AI tools, such as Bard and ChatGPT, I can translate around 1,000 to 1,200 words an hour.

Resume stalking can help job seekers identify patterns that can set them on the right career path. He also gives advice on how job seekers can narrow down roles they might be interested in. That's where resume stalking comes in. Gorick Ng, a career advisor at Harvard, said job seekers should ask themselves three questions to narrow down their search. If a job seeker knows where they want to live, they can specifically search in Google for major employers in that location.

I was charged $2,500 for damages on my rental car, and I didn't have insurance — just my credit card reimbursement. Luckily, I had rental car insurance through my Chase Freedom credit card. I make it a point to book rental cars on a credit card with a rental car insurance benefit so I can decline the rental car company's collision insurance and save money while still being covered. I saved $250 on my rental car reservation this time by declining the collision damage waiver. I missed one essential documentWhen I got home from Costa Rica, I started the claims process with my credit card immediately so I could be reimbursed for the $2,500 charge before my credit card bill was due.

There are other ways to help children become independent, resourceful, caring people who can handle life's ups and downs and thrive. Ask yourself: "Can my child handle this challenge?" Instead, help your child accept hard feelings by reiterating that all feelings are normal and they're loved no matter what. When you're harsh with your child, they learn to use the same tactics to get what they want or need. Tovah P.

CNN —Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, believed to be one of the architects of the militant group’s October 7, 2023, terror attack and Israel’s most wanted man, was killed in Gaza on Wednesday, according to the Israeli military.

At one of the protests, Sinwar applauded those facing “the enemy who besieges us.”As the group’s political leader, Sinwar focused on the group’s foreign relationships, forging important ties with regional Arab powers.

CNN —Six people have been arrested as part of an investigation into a wine fraud ring that allegedly sold fake French wine for up to €15,000 ($16,300) per bottle. Police in Italy searched 14 properties and seized large amounts of wine, wine bottles, counterfeit stickers from top French vineyards and machines used to recap bottles, according to a statement from European law enforcement agency Europol, published Tuesday. “The surge in demand for fine wine in the 21st century… has motivated fraudsters,” George told CNN. “Better training and better knowledge of what bottles of fine wine – and especially old bottles of fine wine – really look like would be useful,” said George. Bolgheri Sassicaia red wine comes from an area on the coast of Tuscany and has become one of Italy’s best-known fine wines since it appeared on the market in the 1970s.

While Su has previously spoken with Boeing and the striking West Coast factory workers’ union, it is her first time in Seattle meeting both sides in person. Roughly 33,000 workers have been on strike since Sept. 13, seeking a 40% wage increase over four years. Boeing will next month send out 60-day notices to thousands of workers including many in its commercial aviation division, meaning those staff will leave the company in mid-January, one source familiar with the matter said. A Boeing spokesperson said the company had shared information with managers including plans for 10% reductions at its commercial unit involving both union and non-union workers. “Boeing just turned its back on 17,000 of its own workers — the same people who carried Boeing through crisis after crisis, year after year,” he said in a statement.

There's good reason to adopt a skills-first strategy: Hiring managers who practice skills-first hiring find it twice as easy to find qualified candidates than hiring managers who do not. But the advancement of generative AI has the potential to change that. To use AI effectively for skills-first hiring, talent professionals must understand how models have been developed and trained and audit and monitor those models for bias. Indeed's Smart Sourcing generative AI provides an explanation of the candidate's potential overlapping qualifications with the employer's job description. As crucial as AI will be to skills-first hiring, talent acquisition, and management always starts and end with humans.
