    That’s honestly so lame to say, imagine being against colloquialisms and slang which is literally the best part of language. I get it I roll my eyes at it too sometimes but mostly when it’s disingenuous or pretentious. For example some middle class white kid talking like a gangster that shit is cringy.

    Whenever I see someone talking like this I always think it’s probably some teenager somewhere talking like this online because they think it’s cool.

      It is cool, but only among their peers, which they don’t seem to realize

      Likely, I do not however see the value of translating this using Chatgpt. What’s a business case for this? Money and resources could be put into something more useful.

        It’s useful to people who don’t understand the slang so it has a use which imo means it’s worthwhile and it doesn’t require that much effort to do anyways.

          Would you imagine using the API to create a WebApp (AWS Lambda or similar) or people copy -> pasting the text for each comment they want to translate?
