kotoba-whisper-v1.0-mlx

This repository contains a converted mlx-whisper model of kotoba-whisper-v1.0 which is suitable for running with Apple Silicon. As kotoba-whisper-v1.0 is derived from distil-large-v3, this model is significantly faster than mlx-community/whisper-large-v3-mlx without losing much accuracy for Japanese transcription.

Usage

pip install mlx-whisper

mlx_whisper.transcribe(speech_file, path_or_hf_repo="kaiinui/kotoba-whisper-v1.0-mlx")
