        I've recently discovered openai/whisper and have been trying in
        earnest to get this working with Asterisk for voicemail
        transcriptions (Currently using the NerdVittles script with IBM
        Watson)<br>
        <br>
        <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

        <br>
        After spending several hours today, I've successfully integrated
        my home Asterisk 16 voicemail with Whisper.<br>
        <br>
        Once I have followed the instructions for setting up an API
        server<br>
        <br>
        <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
          href="https://blog.deepgram.com/how-to-build-an-openai-whisper-api/"
          moz-do-not-send="true">https://blog.deepgram.com/how-to-build-an-openai-whisper-api/</a><br>
        <br>
        Initially, I setup a quad core VM to test this with, but
        discovered that without a dedicated card for the inference that
        it was horribly slow.  So, I've set up testing on my desktop
        (Kubuntu 20) since I have an nVidia GTX 1060 installed.<br>
        <br>
        For the integration with Asterisk, I'm using a slightly modified
        script from nerdvittles IBM Watson script<br>
        <br>
        sendmailibm<br>
        <br>
        That can be found on their website<br>
        <br>
        <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://nerdvittles.com/free-asterisk-voicemail-transcription-with-ibms-stt-engine/"
          moz-do-not-send="true">https://nerdvittles.com/free-asterisk-voicemail-transcription-with-ibms-stt-engine/</a><br>
        <br>
        I will probably find a low cost nVidia video card and get a
        stand alone Linux box running to handle this project.<br>
        <br>
        If you're interested in the details, let me know.<br>
