Hello #Fediverse @academicchatter
I need your help for a privacy-focused local-host (run offline from my computer) transcription software.

I am (luckily?) collecting more interviews than I planned and transcribing manually is becoming a giant task, so it would really be helpful to have an automatic assistance.

Any suggestions?

@alx @academicchatter @phdstudents I am very happy with Vibe
@thomasjorgensen @academicchatter @phdstudents thank you, I just asked a couple of question about Vibe here:

@rabalupe@friendica.world @academicchatter@a.gup.pe @phdstudents@a.gup.pe it says it's built on OpenAI Whisper, so I have 2 questions (because I'm not technical and I don't trust OpenAI): - do we know the training data of Whisper? - does anyone know the environmental impact of Vibe? Sorry to be a bit tedious, but my research is all about ethics and sustainability so I really want to get my tool right!
