First of all are you seriously using GPT 3 and not 4? Second I’m giving you feedback from an actual Japanese person who used Google Translate all the time to go back and forth. Now using GPT 4 they say it is no contest way better than Google Translate. To a point where they can use it to understand and communicate professionally with English and Japanese business customers. But you can even see it yourself taking actual articles from Japanese websites and running them through Google Translate versus GPT 4, GPT translates into much much more fluent English, same with the translation to Japanese.

Well, I'm actually an actual Japanese person too. As for using GPT 3.5, I just never paid for GPTs, sorry for that. The deltas just look marginal to me, I know everything on the Internet(/s) and I can read/write basic English, and I'm a bit of an crazy paranoid type too, so value of getting hallucinated outputs and having it critique my writing through the tapped GPT web interface isn't that high. If you could read all of these outputs and compare against each others(thanks glandium-san and sorry for bothering), you'll just see all of it has pros and cons and that they compare. They're not worlds apart, in fact I think GT did best in this instance probably from massive accumulation of edge case fixes or some other non-scaling improvements behind it. Like I said, it's an interesting phenomenon - it could be UX advantages, or friendlier tones, latency, personally I think it's dataset imbalance or could be numerous other things. But when it comes to actual literal translation performance, um, it's just an MT.
