Oh no! The model won't translate to an unsupported language, and incorrectly reverts to one that it was explicitly trained on. The base likely was pretrained on days that included Polish and Ukrainian. You shouldn't be surprised t

I won't stand for Carter slander: he was a darn good president too. What he wasn't good at, was politicking, and that was because he also was a good man , to a fault. He gave an honest answer to a question on if he had ever luste
