How We Made OpenAI’s Whisper 25% Faster on NVIDIA GPUs

‍

‍

OpenAI’s Whisper—the open-source speech recognition model with 78K+ stars on GitHub—is impressive, but not exactly optimized out of the box. If you’re building real-time transcription apps or processing large volumes of audio, you’ve probably hit its performance limits.

‍
So we asked: What if we could speed it up?

‍
In our latest demo, we show how Artemis—our evolutionary AI platform for code optimization & validation—boosted Whisper's runtime on NVIDIA hardware by 25%.

‍
That means:

• Lower cloud compute costs
• Faster transcription for real-time use cases
• Zero manual tuning
