🎥 Welcome to our deep dive into Whisper.cpp! 🌟 Whisper is an advanced speech recognition model developed by OpenAI that converts spoken language into text. In this video, we'll explore Whisper.cpp, by ggerganov, which is a C++ implementation of this powerful model.

Whisper.cpp was actually designed to be installed in Linux, so if you go through the github page, you will not be able to install it in Windows. However, we walk through literally every step to get this going so you can ultimately use it in your Python code.

Warning: this is an intense install and can go off the rails at any point. The vast majority of the work is done in the command line, so pay close attention. TBH, as there are better Whisper implementations out there, I think this application fits better as "practice for installing a difficult software" than any actual practical application.

That being said, let's dive in and get our hands dirty! Here we go!
