Introducing: CUDA for Windows!
Now compiling Whisper.cpp vs. CUDA 11 and 12 for GPU accelerated runtime on Windows, which can result in ~x5-x10 faster inference.
With GPU acceleration you can now go for bigger models like Medium and still have very fast transcription with incredible accuracy in many languages.

Also introducing MacOS Apple Silicon optimizations for M1/M2/M3 processors, which results in performance bumps and utilizes your hardware better.

Enjoy!
