Whisper
OpenAIWhisper is a general-purpose speech recognition model, trained on a large dataset of diverse audio. It is a multitask model that handles multilingual speech recognition, translation and language identification. It serves the transcription and translation endpoints of the Audio API, and it is the one transcription model that takes audio alone, with no text prompt.
