AI-powered Amazon Transcribe service now offers better accuracy to Indian languages

Amazon has announced that its AI-powered Transcribe service is now available with better accuracy support for over 100 languages, including some Indian languages. The company said that its ‘next-generation multi-billion parameter speech foundation model-powered system’ helped in the expansion of its automatic speech recognition support.

Amazon Transcribe is an automatic speech recognition (ASR) service that makes it easy for users to add speech-to-text capabilities apps.

The company said that the service’s speech foundation model is trained using self-supervised algorithms that help it learn inherent universal patterns of human speech across languages and accents.
