By the way, amidst the excitement of the ChatGPT API release, the news got a bit lost that OpenAI also released an API for Whisper - a speech recognition service. Tests show that it performs excellently not only in English but also in Russian.

P.S. Interestingly, it works even better in Spanish and Italian than in English.
