With gratitude to the Most High, the Merciful, we have achieved our main goal for 2023: laying the groundwork for elevating Chichewa from a low-resource language to one integrated into the AI ecosystem.

Beyond linguistic enhancements, we've successfully introduced across WhatsApp, Telegram, Web Chat, and Facebook Messenger - thanks to the generous support of Microsoft.

Our overall objective is the widespread accessibility of ChatGPT in Chichewa, fostering the democratization of Generative AI within local Malawian communities. Go try it out on www.ChewaGPT.com.

Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub is a digital ecosystem removing barriers to building a company with free access to technology, coaching, and support for founders in any stage of development.

This initiative will champion the initiative, a project to transition Chichewa from being a low resource language in the world of LLMs.

We have cracked the code! Chichewa users in Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe will soon access ChatGPT in the Chichewa language thanks to the ChewaGPT developed by iHubOnline.

One of the key indicators of the progress of a translation model is the BLEU (Bilingual Evaluation Understudy) measure. This is a metric used to assess translation quality.

We can confirm that the translation from English to Chichewa has achieved a BLEU score of over 80%.
