July 9 translation malfunctions
In July 9, 2025, after translation capabilities were down for two weeks, they gradually started to come back, but they were soon noticed to be taking advantage of an LLM probably with a malformed initial prompt that failed to translate specific messages and instead responded to the questions they contained.
