This Space allows easy comparisons for transcribed texts between Facebook's Wav2vec model and newly released OpenAI's Whisper model.\n
(Even if Whisper includes a language detection and even an automatic translation, here we have decided to select the language to speed up the transcription and to focus only on the quality of the transcriptions. The default language is english)
