- What it is
- Meta's November 2025 announcement of Omnilingual ASR, an open-source speech recognition system that it says covers more than 1,600 languages. It reports the share of languages that reach a character error rate threshold.
- How much weight it carries
- A vendor announcement by the developer of the model, so it states what Meta claims. It gives a share of languages under a threshold, not the error rate for any one language, so it cannot tell you how accurate the system is for your language.
Facts taken from this source
- Meta says its 7B-LLM-ASR system reaches character error rates (CER) below 10 for 78 percent of the more than 1,600 languages it covers.
