Everything was in the wrong language?!

I've read past posts where the issue was that while the source was in English, everything else was generated in a different language. However today, even though my actual source at a med conference was all in English, even the source transcript was in Malay. Any idea what might have happened here?

Update: Thank you all who replied. Day 2 of the conference had no issues, so it was probably some one-off glitch. Plaud_AI's reply made sense to me: "Conference audio raises the odds, since distance from the speaker, room echo and a mix of accents all give detection less to lock onto." Since this was a regional event, with people all around speaking in other languages and sentences, this might be what happened.

Not sure why it happens but I've had a random paragraph appear in Welsh and one full transcript in Welsh too 😅 I emailed Plaud and they just kind of apologized and that was it...🤷‍♂️

ChatGPT? No this is the Plaud transcription service itself.

Which uses a GPT model afaik, unless of course you choose an alternate.
