The impact of ai on translating culture-specific items [Articol]
(Universitatea de Stat din Moldova, 2026) Cupcic, Silviana
The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into translation practice has radically transformed the production and evaluation of translated texts. Although AI tools frequently generate fluent and grammatically acceptable translations, their ability to translate culturespecific items (CSIs) remains problematic due to cultural incongruity and conceptual nonequivalence between languages. This study investigates the impact of AI on translating Romanian CSIs from tourism texts into English. The aim is to identify the main types of Romanian CSIs occurring in authentic tourism texts and to analyse the accuracy of translation variants provided by the AI tool - Perplexity and machine translation tool - Google Translate when rendering these CSIs into English. Our main hypothesis is that AI provides acceptable translation equivalents in most cases, yet it fails when CSIs should be translated. The comparative analysis of Perplexity AI and Google Translate versions highlights a considerable difference as to the accuracy and quality of translation. The study confirms the continuing necessity of human post-editing in culture-sensitive translation tasks, in particular when applying Google Translate, whereas Perplexity proved to be more efficient and reliable.
The particularities of using blockchain in banking [Articol]
(Universitatea de Stat din Moldova, 2026) Luchian, Ivan; Brumă, Inesa
Purpose of the article: The purpose of this study is to analyze the technological, functional, and strategic aspects of blockchain implementation in the banking sector, with a focus on its impact on operational efficiency, transparency, and security of financial transactions. The paper also examines issues of regulation, scalability, and sustainability accompanying the integration of blockchain into commercial banking activities. Methodology: The research is based on a qualitative analysis of contemporary academic publications, institutional reports, and expert assessments from international financial organizations and consulting firms. Comparative, analytical, and generalization methods were applied to identify the advantages, limitations, and prospects of blockchain use in banking practice. Conclusions: The results indicate that blockchain technology provides significant advantages for digital banking: increased transparency and data integrity, reduced transaction costs, faster settlements, and improved compliance with KYC/AML standards. At the same time, substantial implementation barriers remain, including high investment costs, technological complexity, and regulatory uncertainty. Originality: This study contributes to understanding how blockchain can transform traditional banking systems in the Republic of Moldova and beyond, offering practical recommendations for policymakers and financial institutions regarding the sustainable integration of digital technologies.
