Whisper (speech recognition system)
Whisper is a machine learning model for speech recognition and transcription, created by OpenAI and first released as open-source software in September 2022.

It is capable of transcribing speech in English and several other languages, and is also capable of translating several non-English languages into English. OpenAI claims that the combination of different training data used in its development has led to improved recognition of accents, background noise, and jargon compared to previous approaches. Whisper is a weakly-supervised deep learning acoustic model, made using an encoder-decoder transformer architecture.

Acoustic model
An acoustic model is used in automatic speech recognition to represent the relationship between an audio signal and the phonemes or other linguistic units that make up speech. The model is learned from a set of audio recordings and their corresponding transcripts. It is created by taking audio recordings of speech, and their text transcriptions, and using software to create statistical representations of the sounds that make up each word.
