Kapruka launches free Sinhala language interface to CHATGPT

The Sinhala version of CHATGPT, the popular chatbot from Openai, is now available free to the Sri Lankan community on Kapruka Free Community Tools and APIS, making it an invaluable tool for creating content in Sinhala.

Kapruka, the leading e-commerce brand in Sri Lanka and the country’s largest online retailer, through this initiative, further solidifies its commitment to the Sri Lanka community. Kapruka.com founder and Chairman Dulith Herath is the brains behind this project, ably supported by his team of IT specialists. When promoted why Herath launched this free service, he reiterated, stating, “I wrote the Sinhala interface for CHATGPT and my work here is not a big deal.”

He further went on to state, “I only wrote the necessary transformers and translators using existing open-source tools. But it does open up CHATGPT to Sri Lankans with limited English knowledge.”

Using CHATGTP on Kapruka in Sinhala is incredibly easy. Anyone can go to kapruka.com and use the search bar to look up Sinhala CHATGPT. The users are then brought to the Sinhala CHATGPT page. In the ‘Start Your Chat’ column, one can type a brief sentence in Sinhala about their preference. One can also type in Singlish, which is becoming more and more popular among young people. Finally, click the submit button and the results will appear at the top of the page. In response to prompts, CHATGPT in Sinhala can produce articles, essays, jokes and even poetry.

Just two months after its global launch, CHATGPT, a well-known chatbot from Openai, is thought to have amassed over 100 million monthly active users, making it the fastest-growing consumer application in history. Kapruka believes that its recently launched Sinhala CHATGPT will significantly aid students, content creators and anyone else in need of additional encouragement in Sinhala.
