Question: Can you stand listening to synthetically narrated audiobooks?

Well… Can you? Some of us are not picking up a book if it’s labelled as anything other than human-narrated. With AI in the mix, others of us can’t even tell it’s not even recorded by a real human. Then there are a handful of us who are soothed by the familiar tones of our own screen-readers. We go through your hot takes on the topic.

Audiobook Café is broadcast on AMI-audio in Canada and publishes two new podcast episodes a week on Saturdays and Sundays.
