Boris Steipe<p>Uses in <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Academia</span></a> :</p><p>I am beyond impressed with how <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a> assisted me this afternoon to get <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Whisper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Whisper</span></a> running on my Mac.</p><p>I have some 20+ hours of potato quality interview recordings for a book project to transcribe. First trials with open Whisper services looked promising, but I didn't want to sign up with a commercial service. So I decided to try and run it on my own machine.</p><p>There is a nice jupyter tutorial on Github, posted by lablab.ai – but it is for windows, I haven't updated python since 2.7, nor written anything significant for more than five years. And I've actually never used jupyter. Sounds bad, right?</p><p>Well ChatGPT walked me through it all step by step, reminded me of trivial concepts that I had long forgotten, helped me downgrade to python 3.10 when 3.11 turned out to be unsupported, made sure my pips and paths got untangled, wrote a timing command for me... It took two hours ... but I know I would not have been able to solve this at all otherwise, and gone with the commercial option instead.</p><p>That we have a computer program that can help with this level of tutoring for beginner students is an absolute game changer. </p><p>Now my CPU is happily churning away, spitting out an hour's worth of transcripts (In amazing quality I must say) each ten minutes, and my sanity is safe. (For now anyway ...)</p><p>🙂 </p><p><a href="https://qoto.org/tags/ASR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ASR</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/AutomaticSpeechRecognition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AutomaticSpeechRecognition</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/HigherEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HigherEducation</span></a> </p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://fediscience.org/@BronwynHemsley" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>BronwynHemsley</span></a></span></p>
