TL;DR
OpenAI’s Whisper promises to “approach human level robustness and accuracy on English speech recognition”. In this blog, we will explain how to further improve its performance on other languages. It allowed us to win first prize in the Whisper Fine-Tuning Event held by HuggingFace 🤗 and Lambda Labs, both on French language and German language. The models and the demos are available on the Hugging Face Hub.
