## Local Transcribe with Whisper
> **⚠ Note for Mac users (Apple Silicon):** This version uses `faster-whisper` (CTranslate2), which does **not** support Apple M-chip GPU acceleration. Transcription will run on CPU, which is slower than OpenAI's Whisper with Metal/CoreML support. The trade-off is a much simpler installation — no conda, no PyTorch, no admin rights. If you'd prefer M-chip GPU acceleration and don't mind a more involved setup, switch to the **classic** release:
