The Impact of AI on Audiobooks: A Threat to Narrators and Listeners?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is making its way into the world of audiobooks, with computer-generated voices now available to narrate literary works. While AI narration may save time and money for audiobook producers, many argue that it lacks the talent and soul of human narrators. Major publishers are investing in celebrity narrators, but the economic benefits of AI may eventually lead to a choice between human narrators and AI voices. Concerns also arise regarding the rights and compensation of human narrators, as well as the potential for underhanded tactics in obtaining their voices. Despite its flaws, AI narration may find a place in certain genres or for sight-impaired individuals, but the personal connection and human touch of human narrators are likely to remain valued by the public.
