Learning/Training Different Accents
Would Speech services eventually have the ability to adjust to different accents. i.e. A user would be asked to introduce themselves and maybe even where they were born and raised. That then informs Azure Speech services that the user will likely have a particular accent thereby associating an interpreter that most closely aligns in order to improve accuracy of speech to text translation?
