Played with the demo a bit. It's really good at English, and detects language change on the fly. Impressive.

But whatever I tried, it could not recognise my Ukrainian and would default to Russian in absolutely ridiculous transcription. Other STT models recognise Ukrainian consistently, so I assume there is a lot of Russian in training material, and zero Ukrainian. Made me really sad.

Thats just the result of the model only supporting russian (and 12 other languages) and not urkainian. It maps to the closest words from training data.
