My AI writing assistant for Chinese

Hi HN! In trying to improve my Chinese skills, I built this tool that lets me write a mix of Chinese and English, then recommends a proper Chinese expression.

In plain words

My AI Writing Assistant for Chinese is a tool that helps users improve their Chinese writing skills by allowing them to write in a mix of Chinese and English, then receive recommendations for proper Chinese expressions. It is designed for language learners who want to practice writing without relying on direct English-to-Chinese translation. The tool uses GPT-3.5 paired with Microsoft machine translation to generate suggestions, focusing on being fast, affordable, and accurate rather than encouraging lazy translation habits.
