Not yet but it seems like they're getting to the point of AI narration finally being good enough to make any text an 'audiobook'.

Having said that I absolutely hate the audio format, I only used it when I had to drive or when I swam lanes. But these days I do neither.

No, reading verbatim from a technical paper is way too dense. You need a lot of filler words to slow it down and repetition to make it stick when read aloud.

Hmm fair enough but text manipulation is exactly something where LLMs do shine. Writing and modifying text is what they were meant for.

Ps I don't mean the word 'manipulation' in a negative context.
