This is very surprising to me. I found ChatGPT/4 to be extremely adept at translation between well asserted languages including English/Japanese in which I am an expert in both. I'm curious how you managed to make it blow up.

One thing that really floored me wrt GPT-4 translation capabilities is using it to make sense of the Veritable Records of the Joseon Dynasty (https://sillok.history.go.kr/main/main.do). Take something from 1400s and see what it can do with that after you tell it what it is translating. Then try Google/Bing Translate for comparison.

However, it does have a thing about pretending to know languages that it really doesn't (because of how little of them there was in the training data and/or in general).
