AI aside, different voices may be immersion breaking. I tend to avoid audiobooks with more than a single narrator.

They are redoing all of the discworld books like this, and personally I can't stand it.

Two narrators with one reading the male and one reading the female characters is usually okay but the full cast dramas are the worst.
