Product improvements

Often times, developers will need to expose their AssemblyAI API Key in their client applications when establishing connections with our real-time streaming transcription API. Now, developers can create a temporary API token that expires in a customizable amount of time (similar to an AWS S3 Temporary Authorization URL) that can safely be exposed in the client applications and front-ends.

This will allow developers to create short-lived API tokens designed to be used securely in the browser, along with authorization within the query string!

For example, authenticating in the query parameters with a temporary token would look like so:

wss://api.assemblyai.com/v2/realtime/ws?sample_rate=16000&token={TEMP_TOKEN}

In this minor update, we improve the accuracy across all Content Safety labels, and add two new labels for better content categorization. The two new labels are sensitive_social_issues and marijuana.

New label definitions:

• sensitive_social_issues: This category includes content that may be considered insensitive, irresponsible, or harmful to specific groups based on their beliefs, political affiliation, sexual orientation, or gender identity.
• marijuana: This category includes content that discusses marijuana or its usage.
