[question] Convert BIN to ggml?

[0wwafa]

By mistake I downloaded:
https://huggingface.co/ALM/whisper-it-small/blob/main/pytorch_model.bin

How do I convert it to ggml?

hey @0wwafa , you can use huggingface pipeline to download the entire repo and specify the directory like below:

from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download

snapshot_download(repo_id='ALM/whisper-it-small', local_dir="/model/whisper")

Also, dont forget to clone original openai/whisper https://github.com/openai/whisper. After that run the convert-h5-to-ggml.py. below is the example syntax:

python3 ./whisper.cpp/models/convert-h5-to-ggml.py [path to huggingface] [path to openai/whisper] [target directory]

Hope it can help 😄
