Solutions / Large Language Models
Large Language Models
Japanese fluency is more than grammar. It is register, regional variation, professional vocabulary and cultural reference.
What this use case needs
Pretraining breadth beyond the open web
Licensed publishing, professional writing and technical documentation add registers that crawled text underrepresents.
Instruction and preference data written natively
Machine-translated instructions inherit English assumptions. Native-authored instructions and preference rankings teach tone, politeness and local norms.
Domain depth
Legal, financial and medical Japanese needs expert-authored or expert-reviewed data.
Common pitfalls
- Training on translated data and measuring on translated benchmarks
- Ignoring keigo: models that are fluent but impolite in business contexts
- Unclear rights on 'publicly available' text
