Yes. The example uses Whisper-tiny which is 39M, a perfect match for the downstream task of keyword spotting. Just one line needs to be changed in the code to run a larger Whisper model :)

> Whisper 3 has many model sizes

Nitpick but important - Whisper v2 and v3 are large only. It's actually the same Whisper but the version of the model (large-v2, large-v3) has been updated.

All of the other model sizes are the original release.

I reread your comment multiple times and still don’t understand the important nitpick. Are you saying that the smaller models haven’t been updated alongside the Whisper 3 release? That makes the most sense to me, but I don’t want to misinterpret what you mean!

They only released the "large" model of both v2 and v3, the tiny model is v1
