  They still don’t understand the context of what they’re reading though so they can’t apply tone correctly.

    From what I’ve been able to hear it’s not that bad. They’re pretty good at having a general tone. But they may fail when it comes to emotional tones, like anger or sadness. But for just reading a book aloud there shouldn’t be any issue.

    Fair. Definitely some awkward phrasing, but it’ll get better.

  Just tried it. Still a machine buy much better than default TTS.

    In 10 years it’s probably gonna be really impressive.
