Hmmm... it doesn't differentiate between English accents, like UK (actually there are a bunch of sub-accents), Canadian or US (of which there are a bunch of sub-accents.)

It only does non-English accents I guess. That wasn't clear.




Sounds a bit too much to ask. Getting enough labelled training data for each English speaking country (why would you even class the UK as one when England alone has dozens of accents?) in the world is likely a challenge

I am not sure that is the case. There is an AI accent generator that can do different English accents, sort of what I was suggesting to identify:
