It’s honestly pretty great for books that aren’t going to sell too many copies. Means they become available vs never being available. It also fits fine for books that don’t take much concentration and where meanings can’t be misinterpreted. The sort of thing I listen to in the gym or while doing chores.
Human voices still have an edge on imbuing correct meaning into sentences, which is very important for more complex categories like philosophy. But I dare say it’s only a matter of time until the voice software catches up. LLMs can presumably understand meaning so it’s just a matter of pairing them up with the voice synthesizers.
Provided everything is labelled honestly I don’t mind.
