How did you make whisper better? I used whisper large to transcribe 30 podcast episodes and it did an amazing job. The times it made mistakes were understandable like confusing “Macs” and “Max”, slurred speech or people just saying things in a weird way. I was able to correct these mistakes because I understood the context of what was being talked about.

Another thing I noticed is whisper did a better job of transcribing when I removed a lot of the silences in the audio.
