    As an English speaker, I would not even know how to pronounce a French acronym such as UTC in French.

    GPT is an acronym, not a word.

      Yeah but it is (or should be) expected that to live in this world in 2023 you should know English and at least how to pronounce an acronym made by an American company

      I’m Italian so not a native speaker either, I just hate ignorance and pride of one own language to the point that you don’t want to learn anything else. Happens often in my country
