Swedish Speech-To-Text in OpenWebUI
It’s far from obvious how to use OpenWebUI with another Whisper model than the defaults from Systran. I wanted the Speech-To-Text to use the models from the Swedish Royal Library - and found a way.
OpenWebUI is a great AI toolbox for personal or family use. They manage to get a pretty user friendly UI set up that can tie into both local and remote AI servers - with some caveats. The support for Speech-To-Text is one such, where the only local support is for their built-in Faster Whisper server, which only allows you to specify which of the models in the Systran repository you want to use.
