ChatGPT users lost in translation as the AI programme starts answering them in Welsh
ChatGPT users are amazed by the artificial intelligence bot that answers their questions in Welsh.
The innovative technology is impressive, but still has shortcomings, as users discovered when the app translated their English questions and answers to Cymraeg.
The Financial Times was the first to report the issue, which users have been complaining about for some time.
It appears to only occur when using the voice function, where users say their requests out loud rather than typing them. The company told the FT it was aware of an issue with its speech transcription system, Whisper.
Just last month, the Welsh government celebrated a new ‘data partnership’ with OpenAI, the parent company of ChatGPT, to better understand the language and improve the usability of AI for Welsh speakers.

A recent study found that people find jokes made by ChatGPT funnier than human jokes.
AI technology continues to develop at a rapid pace.
Just a few weeks ago, a study found that people find jokes made by ChatGPT funnier than jokes made by humans.
Participants in the University of Southern California study did not know who wrote the jokes before they indicated which ones they liked best.
They voted overwhelmingly in favor of the AI jokes, with 75 percent saying they were funnier than the human jokes.
Meanwhile, a leading US medical organization is encouraging doctors to use it to free up their time.
A study by the American Academy of Family Physician showed how well the AI model could interpret and summarize complex medical studies. Doctors are advised to read these studies to stay up-to-date on the latest research and treatment developments in their field.
They found that the chatbot was accurate 98 percent of the time, quickly and accurately providing doctors with summaries of studies across a range of specialties, from cardiology and neurology to psychiatry and public health.
