Openai Whisper API

Transcribe audio via OpenAI Audio Transcriptions API (Whisper). Use when the user wants to transcribe, convert speech to text, extract words from audio or voice recordings, generate a transcript from an audio file, or perform speech recognition on m4a, ogg, or wav files using the Whisper model. Use when this capability is needed.
