Whisper (transcription)

Whisper (trascrizione)

Whisper is an automatic speech recognition model developed by OpenAI and released with open weights. It turns spoken audio into written text (transcription) and can translate speech from many languages directly into English. Trained on a huge, varied collection of recordings, it is robust to accents, background noise and technical terminology, making it suitable for imperfect real-world settings. Being open, it can be downloaded and run locally, enabling transcription of sensitive content without sending it to external services, which matters for confidentiality.

Definition

Whisper is widely used to caption videos, transcribe meetings and interviews, power voice assistants and make audio content accessible. Availability in several sizes lets users balance accuracy against hardware requirements.
