Technologytechnology

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 31: If you ask ChatGPT a question in proper Hindi, it’ll usually handle it. But toss it the way people really talk—mixing English and Hindi, typing in Roman letters to save time—suddenly, it starts tripping up. Same goes for a farmer in Gujarat using Gujarati, or someone in rural Tamil Nadu using Tamil. The model gets English first; everything else is almost an afterthought.
