I would like to have a radio transcription tool where you can select a section they talked about and hear the original audio fragment and/or a key talking point extractor with the ability to store certain conversations as transcription for later.

I built just such a tool with the cursor program, and it's working perfectly! It now even is a (355MB(!)) executable. It uses FFplay to stream radio stations and it uses whisper to transcribe and keybert to extract key talking points.

Hi, thanks Manuele, any idea on which Python library I could use for radio reception?

Hi Afrim,
By radio transcription I guess you mean the ability to trascribe speech.
Most of the transcription apps that use whisper or similar can attach timecodes ( as you would for subtitles files ). Whisper allows even a word-level timestamp.
Unfortunately I don't know any software in particular that does exactly all the things you mentioned, but if you can code a bit, with Whisper and another model for "key point extraction" it shouldn't be too hard to built something like that for personal use.
