This LID (Language IDentification) model is used to predict the language of the input text, and the hosted version (`lid218e`) was [released as part of the NLLB project](https://github.com/facebookresearch/fairseq/blob/nllb/README.md#lid-model) and can detect 217 languages. You can find older versions (ones that can identify 157 languages) on the [official fastText website](https://fasttext.cc/docs/en/language-identification.html).
