Books I can understand, but I'm genuinely curious: would anyone here find it useful to hear scientific papers as narrated audio? Maybe it depends on the field, but when I read e.g. an ML paper, I almost always have to go through it line-by-line with a pen and scratchpad, jumping back and forth and taking notes, to be sure I've actually "got it". Sometimes I might read a paragraph a dozen times. I can't see myself getting any value out of this, but I'm interested if others would find it useful.

I’m not sure “hear scientific papers as narrated audio” best describes what this is. From the link:

> Illuminate generates audio with two AI-generated voices in conversation, discussing the key points of select papers.
