I built a free voice translation tool using OpenAI

Hacker News

My girlfriend relocated to Bangalore from Pune and was struggling to talk to cab drivers. So I built this simple app to instantly translate voice. The app even auto-detects the other person's language; ideal for when you have set the language to "Tamil" when the other person was actually speaking in "Kannada" and you didn't realize it. I used OpenAI's Whisper and TTS for this.
