That's honestly so lame to say, imagine being against colloquialisms and slang which is literally the best part of language. I get it I roll my eyes at it too sometimes but mostly when it's disingenuous or pretentious. For example some middle class white kid talking like a gangster that shit is cringy.

Whenever I see someone talking like this I always think it's probably some teenager somewhere talking like this online because they think it's cool.

Likely, I do not however see the value of translating this using Chatgpt. What's a business case for this? Money and resources could be put into something more useful.

It's useful to people who don't understand the slang so it has a use which imo means it's worthwhile and it doesn't require that much effort to do anyways.

Would you imagine using the API to create a WebApp (AWS Lambda or similar) or people copy -> pasting the text for each comment they want to translate?
