Add a license to the project

[FL33TW00D]

Without a license for your project, the default copyright laws kick in. Your code can't be reproduced, distributed or have derivative works created.

I have a project in mind based on your work, but my hands are tied if I can't fork and modify your project. Could you add a permissive license such as MIT so that I can use your project?

Thanks for letting me know!
Apache 2.0 license added - go wild!

whisper-webgpu isn't going to be open-source (as in source code).

I can see some source code in whisper-webgpu. If someone do not modify the package can they use it as it is?

However, as whisper-turbo is Apache licensed it can be used in commercial projects.

Not really. whisper-webgpu package establishes that the license is $$$. Can someone use whisper-webgpu straight away as it is in a commercial or non commercial project? If not just only happens that whisper-turbo is breaking the law in behalf of you but Im pretty sure anyones project wont pass an auditory just because it depends on commercial software that is already a bit unclear.

Maybe some lawyer can bring some light here.

I’ll change the license to apache! It will make things simpler!

@FL33TW00D your license is Apache, however the license of whisper-webgpu used by turbo is not clear.
In example:

• Is someone able to reuse the existing package of whisper-webgpu without using whisper-turbo?
• If someone uses whisper-turbo in a commercial project being an Apache project they should know that whisper-turbo is not

I do hope to release whisper-turbo-pro, or something similar, which has additional features.
