alt Hacker NewsThe issue is that French, Italian, African, Japanese people shouldn't have the inconvenience of instructing the LLM tool to get the basic facts about their own culture. They should use an LLM that has already been trained like that by default. Nobody has obligation to use a tool that thinks it is talking to an American. If I go to Google for example I want to get facts about my own country in my own language.

Then add top-level instructions saying what country you're from, what country you live in now, and which language you speak. This isn't that hard.
