Well, look at USA alone and tell us how many accent they have. Globally there’s like two way to pronounce the word “Herb” and “Data” and “gif”(pronounced like giraffe) and many other word, people still fighting over it yet there’s no “correct” way to pronounce, both are legit. There’s also the whole thing with dialect. Language, pronunciation, and all those thing, its always start from reading it wrong(as in not intended way), then people are taught the same thing on that region, then it became an accent or dialect or what have you. Turning back the clock 200 years from now, i’m pretty sure they talk differently.
This isn’t in support in AI replacing teacher though, as learning lips movement is very important in teaching pronunciation. People talk differently because their lips and tongue move differently, and AI can’t do that. They make sound with speaker, not manipulating how air leave the throat.
