There’s support for Whisper + pyannote speaker diarization in Speechbox: [GitHub - huggingface/speechbox](https://github.com/huggingface/speechbox/tree/main#asr-with-speaker-diarization)

In my experience, the pre-trained pyannote models work very well, but there’s the option of fine-tuning these models too.

We can drop in any fine-tuned Whisper/pyannote models directly into the Speechbox pipeline 🤗
