Some human book readers have a lot more than accurate reading skills. (Can even read a title like 'Astounding Science...' (without the 3 second pause before) 'Fiction September 1959'.) https://ia801608.us.archive.org/25/items/synapseml_gutenberg...

They have wonderful voice acting skills as well. They can create multiple character voices and personalities. They can detect and express emotions appropriately, without hints from the text.

They'll continue to be highly valued, and far more enjoyable to listen to, for a -long- time.
