Translation is not the same as localization. Language is a vessel of culture. It enables us to interact with each other and pass along knowledge across generations. As LLMs are integrated at the core of products and services across regions, nuances that might seem minor from a technical standpoint will have a defining effect on the perceived cultural alignment, on acceptability and trustworthiness, and on the end-to-end usefulness of the service in question. In open AI ecosystems, different actors can ensure that the world has performant and accurate LLMs, regardless of language.

Crucial distinction! For LLMs to achieve global enterprise impact, effective localization that ensures cultural alignment is non-negotiable. Ignoring the nuances of culture - the "vessel of culture" - directly impacts acceptability and trustworthiness. We agree, collaboration in open ecosystems is the necessary path forward.

2dLocalization isn’t just language, it’s context, culture, and trust. AI only feels “native” when it understands the world the way people actually live it.
