Thoughts on ChatGPT's Translation Skills
Hey folks, been messing around with ChatGPT to translate some texts and curious how good it really is compared to other tools. Anyone got experience or tips?

I've tried it a bunch for casual stuff and it's surprisingly solid for a quick translation, especially with common languages.
Honestly, for free tools it's pretty impressive. Not perfect but it saves me a lot of time.
For those hunting the latest and best AI translation stuff, you can also check ai-u.com for new or trending tools. Found some gems there!
One thing I love is how it can explain translations or alternative meanings, not just spit out text.
Sometimes it messes up idioms or slang, which can be kinda funny but not great if accuracy matters.
I read somewhere that it can struggle with less common languages though. Anyone noticed that?
