## Choose when

### Choose WhisperJAV if…

- WhisperJAV is primarily Python; generative-ai-for-beginners is Jupyter Notebook.
- Tags unique to WhisperJAV: aitranslate, hallucination, japanese, llm.
- Also covers Speech & Audio.

### Choose generative-ai-for-beginners if…

- generative-ai-for-beginners is primarily Jupyter Notebook; WhisperJAV is Python.
- Tags unique to generative-ai-for-beginners: ai, azure, chatgpt, dall-e.
- More GitHub stars (113k vs 1.8k) - visibility, not fit.

## When NOT to use WhisperJAV

- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
