Feature Request/Advice : Fine Tuning for Medical Use Case? #6

Description

@GaleiqTesting

Hey there, thanks for making this implementation for MLX. Really appreciate it. Your projects help open source significantly!
Comparing it to Whisper Turbo V3 (local as well).

Parakeet:
Pros;

  • Much Less resource intensive
  • Significantly Faster - especially on longer audio files

Cons

  • Less accurate on medical recordings as compared to Whisper large-v3-turbo
  • Non significant time difference for audio around the range 0-5min.

Feature Request: Simple Way to drop in a dataset and fine tune parakeet?

Thanks a lot!
(Tested Combinations: both wav and m4a, with and without chunking, fp32 and bf16)
(Context; I'm a medical doctor and not very well versed in coding - mainly just use Cursor/RooCode + Gemini/Grok/Claude to help experiment and trial stuff.)
