Implements the Whisper model via the [Burn WGPU backend](https://github.com/tracel-ai/burn/blob/main/crates/burn-wgpu/README.md) or [whisper-rs](https://github.com/tazz4843/whisper-rs).

Burn implmentation is based over [sudomonikers/whisper-burn](https://github.com/sudomonikers/whisper-burn), provides abstraction over different models and languages. 

Weights are automatically downloaded from Hugging Face.
