    This is a really cool idea. I love that you expose the personal profile as markdown. Reminds me of this article and exposing the system prompt: https://koomen.dev/essays/horseless-carriages/ . Well done!

    I have this complaint too! I was impressed that they included Cantonese but it's frustrating that I don't know when it's pronunciation/accent is off. Have you found any other tools that work well for learning Cantonese a
