We employ Whisper on all of our podcast recordings in Polish. It makes mistakes but so few of them and in a predictable enough way that our listeners are able to follow our episodes without the need to listen to the original recording. I used one of these transcripts to prepare a written article on the matter we were discussing. I use Whisper to transcribe podcasts in foreign languages: French, Swedish, Hungarian, Spanish; I then throw the transcript at DeepL and can read the podcast in a language I can understand so that I can extract the information I need. It works most of the time, it's certainly not a pretty read but it gets me through and I can always extract what I need.
