You probably could ask ChatGPT to translate a text piece. If I'm understanding correctly, ChatGPT uses Whisper for translations

#

And time how long it would take

#

oops, sorry

#

thought about translations. But you probably mean transcribing. For this, there is a playground

#

Sorry, I'm asking about the time it takes for it to transcribe from an MP4 or MP3.

#

Oh, Whisper is in the playground?

#

I don't see it in the Playground.

#

I want to upload an MP4 and get the transcription.

#

yeah, me neither

Using the API.

#

sorry, I thought it was there

#

Okay, I'll set it up and see how long it takes. Just trying to gauge if it's seconds or minutes to process on the API.

#

I can tell you this: I'm running whisper locally, with pretty good hardware, and it takes about 70 minutes to transcribe 10K seconds

#

This is pretty fast, and I think API runs on better hardware

#

at least, that what they say in the docs

harsh trout Mar 24, 2023, 7:05 PM

#

Cool! What format are using? MP3?

stable spindle Mar 24, 2023, 7:09 PM

#

yes, mp3

#

also, I'm transcribing into non-English language, so with English it would be even faster
