Swahili webinars and online talks, 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.
Webinars in particular: Timestamps make chapter markers and highlight clips trivial. Blog recaps, follow-up emails and evergreen content from one session.
