I would love to see a model designed by curating the training data so that the model produces the best responses possible. Then again, the work required to create a training set that is both sufficiently sized and well vetted is astronomica

I'm sorry, but this is essentially racism prettied up. The research is about language bitrate not about regional speaking rate variations within a language. Tangentially, I'm relatively confident that what you're experience
