Swahili press conferences and briefings, transcribed properly
Swahili (Kiswahili): The strongest sub-Saharan language in Whisper's training mix. Kenyan and Tanzanian accents both transcribe; Sheng (Nairobi slang) mixing needs review.
Press conferences in particular: Every statement is quotable with a timestamp — attribution survives the scrum. Same-hour quotes, full-text search across briefings, and a clean record of what was said.
