How to do Free Speech-to-Text Transcription Better Than Google Premium API with OpenAI Whisper Model
If you want to transcribe your videos and audio into text for free but with high quality, you have come to the correct video.
In this tutorial video, I will guide you on how to use #OpenAI #Whisper model. I will show you how to install and run Open AI’s Whisper from scratch. I will demonstrate to you how to convert audio/speech into text.
Whisper is a general-purpose speech recognition model released for free by Open AI. I claim that Whisper is the best available Speech-to-Text model (Natural Language Processing - #NLP) released to public usage including premium paid ones such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform, or Google Cloud API. And Whisper is free to use.
I will show you how to install the necessary Python code and the dependent libraries. I will show you how to download a video from YouTube with YT-DLP, how to cut certain parts of the video with LosslessCut, and how to extract the audio of a video with FFMPEG. I will show you how to do a transcription of a video or a sound. I will show you how to generate subtitles for any video. Finally, I will show you how to generate translated transcription and subtitles of any language video.
With the translation feature of the Whisper model, you can watch any language (Whisper supports 99 languages) with English subtitles. Let’s say you can find English subtitles for your favorite video in German or Japanese or Arabic. It is not a problem. Just follow my tutorial and generated English translated subtitles.
Actually, to be precise, Whisper is able to transcribe speech to text in all the following languages, and therefore, translation of these following languages into English:
