Sounds (no pun intended) about right to me.

Every so often, I notice the same happening on Google Translate. (Or equivalent errors, like "Do you speak English?" becoming "Parles-tu français?"). Google Translate is, of course, the product that the Transformer model was invented for.

I haven't used transcription, but in a similar way, I think DeepL translation got worse. Now it always makes the translation more formal, "professional", and gives everything the "LLM voice".
