Hi there,
We are using Nova-3 and have smart formatting enabled. Unfortunately it always appears to format into MM:DD:YY.
This is a problem as there are ambiguous dates that can be spoken and smart formatted depending on the country.
For example, in New Zealand, the default is DD:MM:YY and people would say "Fifth of the Fourth nineteen seventy seven" to represent the 5th of April 1977.
Deepgram will show this as 05/04/1977 when that is actually the 4th of May (good for starwars fans)...
We can't always assume a date is in MM:DD:YY and convert it in code, because if that would only work if they spoke "Fifth of April 77", it would come as 04/05/1977...
Basically there needs to be a way to tell Deepgrams smart formatter what the "common formatting" would be as spoken by people in a country.
It doesn't respect or care about the en-AU (or en-NZ) language model.. which would basically be one way for it to know what is expected in a country.
Has anyone had this issue?
