Amazon Transcribe now supports automatic language identification for streaming transcriptions

Amazon Transcribe is an automatic speech recognition (ASR) service that makes it easy for you to add speech-to-text capabilities to your applications. Today, we are excited to announce automatic language identification for streaming transcriptions. Until now, you were required to manually identify the dominant language in order to use Transcribe streaming APIs. You can now simply start streaming and Transcribe will detect the dominant language from the speech signal and generate transcriptions in the identified language.
