For those who want to use GPU power:

You can use CPU and Whisper API if you don't want to use a GPU

[!TIP] An easier way for me to use cuBLAS and cuDNN 8, in Faster Whisper GitHub:

Download the libraries from Purfview's repository (Windows & Linux)

Purfview's whisper-standalone-win provides the required NVIDIA libraries for Windows & Linux in a single archive. Decompress the archive and place the libraries in a directory included in the PATH.

You can also place the archives in the same folder as the executable or Python code below

[!NOTE] Before using ChatGPT API and Whisper API(not necessary), check Pricing - OpenAI
