This is a submission for Twilio Challenge v24.06.12
What I Built
As an avid translator who often faces challenges with different languages when traveling across different countries. To solve my own problem, I wanted to create a simple chatbot that lets me quickly translate text from my preferred language to another, making it so much easier to communicate with other people.
Therefore, I created an AI Language Translator using the WhatsApp Sandbox mode in Twilio Programmable Messaging, Twilio Functions, and OpenAI's GPT-4o API.

To create this chatbot, I used OpenAI's GPT-4o API in a Twilio Function. This function consumes the text to translate and the target language based on the user's input and returns the translated text.
