These code bases are effectively worthless without the training, which is definitely not open.

- jrochkind1 4y agoYeah, that's a good point. Whisper is useful as a tool to transcribe audio though. Like you can just use it to do that, without having any idea how it works, and it does that well, and it's free. But yeah, it's not exactly "open source"... I mean technically the code and models in the repo is, but I get that's not enough if you actually wanted to develop/improve/fork the actual workings. But it is a working transcriber, that can be used for free, with a license such that it will remain so!
