Whisper models have a very good WER (word error ratio) for languages like Spanish, English, French… if you use the english-only models it also improves. Check out this page on the docs:

No, it’s completely independent, it does not rely on any third-party APIs or anything else. It can function entirely offline once the models have been downloaded.
Made me think of the TVs in Idiocracy.
