Audiobook Narration by AI

There have been many conversations over the last few days about AI in audiobook narration. There is an idea that artificial intelligence will narrate audiobooks and put narrators out of jobs. let me tell you what i think. There is a huge benefit for text to speech in our lives. We use text to speech constantly, when we write messages, when we chat with our voice controlled virtual assistants (Alexa, echo). Text to speech is a necessity, Audiobook narration is an art form. I will continue to update this as time passes. I think this is going to be consuming our minds for some time
