The human-sounding voices are incredible; they've made listening to ebooks an amazing experience. Now I barely need other apps for ebooks, are still my main choice, but when an audiobook is not available, or if I don't like the narrator's voice, then I always use Eleven Reader as an option. It means now I can read more and more with even a bigger pleasure.

I'm curious if you've tried any other TTS voices that come close, or if ElevenLabs is still way ahead for you.

I will never say AI is perfect and it should replace everything, no, I will never say that. But it’s definitely fascinating.

Here on Mastodon, it seems so many people are categorically against.
