I have a theory that it should have a very different “personality” (probably more like writing style) depending on language because it’s an entirely different set of training data

In English chatGPT is rather academic and has a recognisable style of writing, if you’ve used it a bit you can usually get hints something was written by it just by reading it.

Does it speak in a similar tone, with similar mannerisms in other languages? (where possible, obviously some things don’t translate)

I don’t know a second language well enough to have natural conversation so I’m unable to test this myself, and may have worded things awkwardly from a lack of understanding

    While plain direct translation might be automated (though not necessarily because some things just don’t translate), localization is a whole different deal. Can’t speak much for Cantonese because I can’t speak it, but as an Arabic speaker I can’t see an AI being able to translate from Arabic to English as well as a human can anytime soon.

      Not soon, maybe, but I am not that old and want to find a line of work I can reliably do for the next 40 years
