I did replace it. It wasn't really a problem, since I already knew what sensei means. It just didn't make any sense to me to get a transliteration, and capitalized. It's a puzzle is all.

Not sure how that explains why in this particular case, but not all others, Whisper in translate gave a transliteration instead of a translation, and choose to capitalize the word.
It is likely that the algorithm considers the Engish dictionary register for Snsei in its predicted context: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sensei
A cool member sent me a machine translated sub to review and I came across one of the translations.
I have to say, I was drinking and almost spit out my coffee
The first is the machine translation. I did not ask which one, but he told me anyways.
The second one I translated is the "more accurate" one.
To be fair to the AI, that scene was difficult to hear, even if I didn't have a slight hearing problem.
But I might use that line in one of my funnier subs to confuse people hahaha

I think it is normal for transcription software or applications to produce lines even if no one is talking. It means that there are flaws in its algorithm. It is called a bug and not only pertaining to that, it has a lot more bugs like incorrect timestamps so you need to manually adjust it. We can't deny that transcription software is one of the hardest and most complex to make. I think, we should minimize our expectations. And even human transcriptionists make mistakes, that is why some of their work is rejected in their job.
Just my two cents though.

Hey guys, lots of words can have different usage for your subs.
I really suggest you look at this article for example https://www.japan-experience.com/plan-your-trip/to-know/japanese-language/so-desu-ne
so-desu-ne or Sōdesune primary used in JAV subs are Yes/Yeah. Is that so? Is that right? I agree. That's right. So..., Yeah, right. Yes, that's right. I see, and etc.
If you read this article, you might get a spark to liven up your subs. Or understand a little more what the conversation could possibly means

Also.. another word that comes up a lot in JAV is Hazukashii.
It means 'embarrassed'. But it can also mean 'shy' or 'ashamed'.
- In JAV, it's subbed mostly as I'm embarrassed, It's embarrassing, I'm a little embarrassed, I'm so embarrassed, or etc.
- But I tell you...if you want to give a little 'erotica tone' to a big busty housewife doing something rather embarrassing, then use "I'm so ashamed"
Still this simple word 'Hazukashii' can be embarrassing to foreigners and subbers. And you should try to go by the tone and context of how it's used in the movies.
- If you don't want to, then keep it simple and use 'I'm embarrassed'. That will cover almost 90% usage of it in JAV.
This is an excerpt, it could prove useful for your subs;
To be embarrassed by something is to feel acutely self-conscious about it. Typically, it’s something you would prefer other people didn’t know about. You can also be embarrassed by someone else; in other words, a nasty person could intentionally say or do things to make you embarrassed.
To be shy is to be bashful, timid – the sort of person who does not feel comfortable in social situations because he or she doesn’t know what to say to people, or doesn’t like being looked at, etc.
To feel ashamed is to feel guilty about something you’ve done which you know was wrong.
Also you can used this link to get a better understanding the meaning of the words embarrass, shy and ashamed. https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/embarrassed-ashamed-and-shy.3587287/

Can't remember where I downloaded it, but I have (Dirty Everyday Slang) Matt Fargo - Dirty Japanese_ Everyday Slang from _What's Up__ to _F_%# Off!_-Ulysses Press (2007) in PDF (~28MB) , which might fit the bill.
DM me regarding it.
