This kind of thing is what confuses me as a business model. Take audio books for example, Audible is pivoting to ai voices. Why would people spend $20 on an audio book with an ai voice when they can just spend $1.99 on the eBook and run it through an ai voice program themselves?

    most people have absolutely no idea how to 'run it through an ai voice program' ..... yet

    True enough. I suspect that "yet" will come pretty soon though. I'm hoping all of these 'early AI adopter' companies fuck themselves out of business. With the tech as it is, most companies pivoting their products to AI on the user-end are just introducing a middle man. Once people catch on to it and realize they can just cut out the middle man, they hopefully won't last long.
