# Chinese characters show up in French output > Source: > Published: 2026-10-10 14:43:06+00:00 Jeanchallet Z GLM-4.7 uses randomly Chinese ideograms in an answer that is otherwise in French. For example: 荐告ique pour la mise en place (?) S茅par茅s (séparés= pattern is French accented letters) Text output characters should be consistent Jeanchallet Rehan Can’t share my thread due to privacy reasons, only screenshots. I tried to reproduce the behavior though, thinking it was linked to mixed French/English prompting, but I was unable to see the same character mix appear. mb Jeanchallet probably the model being a bit "hot". We can only hope that it'll happen less frequently the more advanced the AI models get. GLM-4.7 has been deprecated and is no longer offered by Kagi. GLM-5.3 is a direct replacement, and is powering Quick, and I haven't had any issues with it.
