Does Whispering support semantic correction? I was unable to find confirmation while doing a quick search.

Hmm, we support prompts at both 1. the model level (the Whisper supports a "prompt" parameter that sometimes works) and 2. transformations level (inject the transcribed text into a prompt and get the output from an LLM model of your choice). Unsure how else semantic correction can be implemented, but always open expand the feature set greatly over the next few weeks!

They might not now how whisper works. I suspect that the answer to their question is 'yes' and the reason they can't find a straightforward answer through your project is that the answer is so obvious to you that it's hardly worth documenting.

Whisper for transcription tries to transform audio data into LLM output. The transcripts generally have proper casing, punctuation and can usually stick to a specific domain based on the surrounding context.
