Transcribe and translate audio with OpenAI's open Whisper model, handle long recordings, and measure accuracy with word error rate.
Whisper is an open speech recognition model that runs on your own machine. This course uses the Whisper tiny model from the hub to transcribe and translate audio, then covers the practical parts: long recordings, timestamps, choosing a model size, and measuring accuracy honestly.
Install with pip install transformers torch jiwer, plus ffmpeg for reading audio files.
