I’m reaching out separately to discuss a different topic.

For automatic translations, we’ll be using your ChatGPT option. Just like DeepL allows you to choose between a formal or informal tone, is there a way to do the same with ChatGPT? I tested it, but the translation came out too formal, so I’d like to know if there’s a way to adjust this setting.

Thanks again!

Currently, the only way to adjust formality is to use the DeepL translation engine. Please see the documentation here: https://wpml.org/fr/faq/wpml-ai-formality/
