Thats genius! Was it a lot of work to set up?

Super cool! A lot of what you are describing I want to do in the future too.

The issue I personally found with traditional TTS is the lack of emotional range and lack of thoughtful pauses. ML models are better at this and picking up on small queues that are hard to program into a TTS otherwise.

I love the iPhone on Safari has a built-in TTS now and was excited to use it. It actually didn't work on Make by Pieter levels after I bought it. So I went to explorer other options. After I started listening to AI generated TTS, I just couldn't go back. It's like 270p vs 2160p (4K).
