Accents can be fun. They can also be frustrating, or frostrah-en. 😀🫠😉
If you think that's nuts, try learning the difference between Dorchester (Dah-ches-tah) and South Boston (sow-thee). Or worse - Bedford-Stuyvesant (Bed-Stoo) New York and somewhere in the Delta region of Mississippi (I won't even try it).

Now imagine AI trying to understand someone from San Antonio trying to have a full-blown conversation with it, when Texans talk a mile a minute with a thick drawl and don't pronounce half the words in the sentences.
