My grandpa passed away 3 months ago. He grew up in Switzerland and had a number of old documents stored under his bed. Everything was written in German but none of our American family members read nor speak German. My dad fed all the documents into ChatGPT and asked it to translate them to English. He wanted to preserve the tone and to learn more about that period of time. Chat did this all. While grieving, my dad was able to take a moment to himself to understand more about his father’s story. Before we would’ve used Google Translate and read poorly translated German that was almost nonsensical. Now my dad was able to stay in the moment and immediately share the story with my grandma.
