One useful use case would be helping making academic papers more accessible. It would be useful also for people to listen to arxiv papers that seems interesting. It would be useful tool in academic world. Also useful for students who would have more accessible form of learning.

I have a project idea already to use arxiv RSS API to fetch interesting papers based on keywords (or some LLM summary) and then pass it to something like illuminate and then you have a listening queue to follow latest in the field. Though there will be some problems with formatting but then you could just open the pdf to see the plots and equations.
