In my experience those results were quite suboptimal and didn’t quite result in usable transcriptions. With better decoding strategy those issues can be alleviated a bit. So the hack is more so of using contrastive search with Whisper to enable such use cases. Will run more

Open Source Models Now Support Custom Tokenizer Fallbacks
By
–
Of course, when using an open source model (Vicuna, Dolly) that model name is not in the tiktoken wrapper Previously, this would raise an error We've now updated this to: (1) fallback to a default tokenizer, (2) allow users to specify model name to use for tiktoken

Open Source Model APIs Now OpenAI-Compatible via LangChain
By
–
Many startups focused on serving open source models have exposed APIs that are interoperable with OpenAI This makes it easy for anyone to try them out by just changing the API base We added better support for this in @langchain in the most recent release (h/t Yuze Ma)

LangChain API Base Configuration and Token Management
By
–
It's always been possible to change the API base in the LangChain model wrappers However, the model wrappers do a lot of handy things like token management, which rely on tokenizers that by default we look up in tiktoken We look this up based on model name
