I don't. I have a MacBook Pro from 2019 with an Intel chip and 16 GB of memory. Pretty sure when I tried the large whisper model it took like 30 minutes to an hour to do something that took hardly any time via Groq. It's been a while though so maybe my times are off.
Ah, no, Apple silicon Mac required with a decent amount of memory. But this kind of machine has been very common (a mid to high range recent macbook) at all of my employers for a long time.
It's been roughly six years since that MacBook was top of the line, so your times are definitely off.
