🎯 How It Works

Language Toggle

English Mode                Japanese Mode
└─ llama3.1 model          └─ Swallow model
└─ English prompts          └─ English prompts +
└─ English responses        └─ "Respond in Japanese" instruction
                            └─ Japanese responses

  • English prompts help model understand Miku's personality
  • Language instruction ensures output is in desired language
  • Swallow is specifically trained for Japanese
  • Minimal implementation, zero translation burden
