The age of book shovelware has arrived: https://smartbitchestrashybooks.com/2024/10/ai-audiobook-narrators-in-overdrive-and-the-issue-of-library-ai-circulation-policy/

who does this? I love audiobooks, but I've put them down when the narrator didn't work for me. Who wants everything to sound like it's being read by a serial killer?
It looks like an AI-powered fiction version of this scam. On one hand being fiction means that it's less likely to actively risk killing people with phony medical advice. But being AI powered means that the grifters can now cut the underpaid gig workers out of the loop entirely, which is probably the most concrete example of AI displacing human workers I've yet seen.
