Hm. I wasn't able to listen to all 9:53:57, but in the samples I watched I heard a voice resembling the classical computer voice of Science Fiction movies of the 70s. Better than most YouTube AI generated audio content, but good enough to narrate audio books? Well, we'll accustom to anything, I guess.

    I don't know if my timestamp went through, but the part I linked to was at 7h/19m/42s. That's the relevant part, not necessarily the entire video. That's a showcase of good AI voices.
