Comment on Audible unveils plans to use AI voices to narrate audiobooks
brrt@sh.itjust.works 1 day agoA shitty narrator can get me to hate a book I like.
And that is where I see potential for AI. There are quite a few books which I’d love to listen to but they are all narrated by a guy whose narration I can’t stand. AI would open the possibility to choose a voice and I might actually get to enjoy those books. It’s Amazon though so the ethical implications and quality concerns are something I’m worried about.

Did you ever heard a single AI-narrated content that did not make you run away screaming?

You think they’ll be narrating books with Tiktok TTS?

Some use even worse, if YouTube content is any indication.

But you think Audible would use those to narrate books?
