I asked it to translate all my string to another language. So I guess i18n support. It's decent.
And you are sure it's not spewing hallucinations or neo-fascism in a language you don't understand... why?
You should try using an LLM to translate things. It's wctually pretty good compared to more traditional translators. I think translation is actually an area LLMs excels in.
Why would I do that when I can talk to a human? (or, at least, something in the internet that pretends to be that)
You've never needed to translate something before? As an example at a grocery store sometimes there are foods with instructions in other languages. Sometimes the entire item is in another language and I want to know what it is.
And I'd ask ten people before a machine. If I had to ask a machine, then I'd have to ask 9 people anyway just to verify if the machine answer is any trustable; after all, the entire point is I couldn't do it myself.
