Installed SpeechNote.
There are many models that you can choose from. Everything happens locally .It is a flatpak application meaning you can install it in any Linux distribution. You can use it to create subtitles for your videos easily.I haven’t tried it yet. But there is also a translation feature.
If you have a Nvidia GPU, there is the option to install the CUDA and use that for hardware acceleration. If you have a AMD, you can use the built in Vulkan driver and no need to install the AMD driver separately.
Since the New Linux kernel added support for AMD NPUs in Laptops, Hopefully in the future, they could use that to run those models more efficiently.
Try it, if you like the software, you can promote it and even contribute to it .If you have spare money, make a small donation.
