It broke when I tried to feed it an entire podcast file, but still, I took this as a push to try out Whisper AI for myself, turns out it's easier to use than I thought. Long story short, I used it to transcriptify a podcast:

Not sure if there's a use for this that's not me, but I like the idea of having subtitles for a podcast I'm listening to.

In that case you could have a look at the Snipd podcast app. They have Whisper built in :)

What tool did you use for the player-text presentation?

Mostly just vanilla JS on that page, and a tiny bit of Python glue code to turn the WebVTT output from Whisper into a data format for the JS.

It’s stunning how it just looks like a human written copy. The punctuation is close to perfect and I couldn’t find any transcription mistakes.
