I don't think translation is a great use case for ChatGPT and LLAMA. These models are overwhelmingly trained on English, and LLAMA2 which should have more data from other languages is still focused on languages w/ Latin/Cyrillic characters (so won't work well for Arabic, Hebrew, or CJK languages).

You're better off using models specialized in translation; General purpose LLMs are more useful when fine-tuning on specific tasks (some form of extraction, summarization, generative tasks, etc.), or for general chatbot-like uses.
