Likelihood to Recommend	Google So, I've had scenarios like when I collaborate with a team where the people are from around the world. So, I used it there, and we spoke to each other in their native language. That boosts everyone's confidence in our collaborative efforts. I've also utilized its model and the API in my projects, including a Virtual assistant and a multilingual application that allows us to learn languages from around the world. We tested it with a group of 12 people, and that's when it failed. I mean, it's not a failure, but it can't detect every person.
