Translations and trascriptions are transformers based, inaccuracies and hallucinations will occur.
+> It's highly recommended that you run this with a GPU, running with CPU is possible but inference will be very slow outside of using tiny models (which compromise accuracy)
+>
+> For this, you will need to install a Nvidia CUDA 12 toolkit. I am running with [CUDA Toolkit 12.9](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-12-9-0-download-archive)

`server.py` serves a backend for translating incoming audio data. It expects some other client to hit the `/events` endpoint to fetch the translated data.
`youtube-subtitle.user.js` is one such example client that can fetch data from this endpoint and render it beneath a YouTube video. You can install it as a userscript.
