I've been working on AI audiobook generation that doesn't sound like a robot reading a grocery list. After 6 months of development, I think I've cracked the prosody problem.

But I'm wondering:

Do you currently listen to AI-generated audiobooks? Why/why not? What's your pain threshold for robotic speech in long-form content? Would this replace buying $15-30 human-narrated audiobooks for you?

The technology is there, but I'm not sure if the market cares enough about the quality difference.
