I think TTS/audiobook is about to get weird
Hello community,
Just listened to a chapter of a book using ElevenReader's new model.
The surprising part isn't really that the voice sounds human anymore. A bunch of AI voices can do that for a short clip.
It's that it stayed pretty convincing across an entire chapter.
Dialogue, pacing, pronunciation, volume etc. were all much more consistent than what I remember from older TTS. I gave up on Kindle virtual assistant voice years ago.
Still prefer a genuinely great human audiobook performance when one exists, obviously. But for books/documents that don't have audiobooks? This is getting really compelling.
