I doubt HC is using something much more intelligent (and thus, costly) than Gemini or ChatGPT, given that they're doing this to penny-pinch in the first place. AI has its place, but that place isn't in linguistic or creative work, and this is just another rung on the slopification ladder.
I used DeepL to translate the quoted text to German, then to Italian, French, and finally British English:

Wenn Sie ein LLM um Hilfe in Ihrer Muttersprache bitten (und dabei vorgeben, ein ausländischer Sprecher zu sein), werden Sie schnell die eklatanten Lücken in den Übersetzungsfähigkeiten und im Verständnis sprachlicher Nuancen aller großen LLMs erkennen.

Ich bezweifle, dass HC etwas viel Intelligenteres (und damit Kostspieligeres) als Gemini oder ChatGPT verwendet, da sie dies in erster Linie tun, um Geld zu sparen. KI hat ihren Platz, aber dieser Platz ist nicht in der sprachlichen oder kreativen Arbeit, und dies ist nur eine weitere Sprosse auf der Leiter der Verflachung.

---------

Se chiedete aiuto a un LLM nella vostra lingua madre (fingendo di essere un parlante straniero), noterete subito le evidenti lacune nelle capacità di traduzione e nella comprensione delle sfumature linguistiche di tutti i principali LLM.

Dubito che HC utilizzi qualcosa di molto più intelligente (e quindi costoso) di Gemini o ChatGPT, poiché lo fa principalmente per risparmiare denaro. L'IA ha il suo posto, ma questo posto non è nel lavoro linguistico o creativo, e questo è solo un altro gradino nella scala dell'appiattimento.

---------

Si vous demandez de l'aide à un LLM dans votre langue maternelle (en prétendant être un locuteur étranger), vous remarquerez immédiatement les lacunes évidentes dans les capacités de traduction et la compréhension des nuances linguistiques de tous les principaux LLM.

Je doute que HC utilise quelque chose de beaucoup plus intelligent (et donc coûteux) que Gemini ou ChatGPT, car il le fait principalement pour économiser de l'argent. L'IA a sa place, mais cette place n'est pas dans le travail linguistique ou créatif, et ce n'est qu'un échelon supplémentaire dans l'échelle de l'appauvrissement.

If you ask an LLM for help in your native language (pretending to be a foreign speaker), you will immediately notice the obvious shortcomings in the translation capabilities and understanding of linguistic nuances of all major LLMs.

I doubt that HC uses anything much smarter (and therefore more expensive) than Gemini or ChatGPT, as it does so primarily to save money. AI has its place, but that place is not in linguistic or creative work, and it is just another rung on the ladder of impoverishment.

While the thescifilady's quote is rather dull and simple and does not feature exceptional linguistic nuance, I really have no complains about the way the last text was translated. Of course it's not a exact replication of the quoted text, but one wouldn't even expect that using human translators.
