Apple says it is committed to book narrators, expands AI reading anyway
Besides author-read books by household name celebrities, I am 100% on board with AI Narration. I stopped listening to an author-read book from a writer clearly struggling with some sort of GI/throat/sinus issue AND stopped listening to a talent-read book that sounded like it was being read by a smarmy 1950's radio advertiser AND I stopped listening to a nonfiction book voiced by the writer's SON... who clearly fancied himself a capital-T thespian and overacted and over enunciated every word.
Based on that experience, I'd imagine a general distaste for audiobook voicing quality is holding back the market. -

Apple's Ive and Newson unveil unadorned fir trees for Claridge's Christmas installation
ttollerton said:That just looks boring and uninspired. Christmas is a season of celebration and joy (and this is explicitly called the Claridge CHRISTMAS tree installation).
There is nothing about that setup that makes me feel joyful. Complete fail by Ive. Ive is usually really good about tying function and design, but this just looks like some shallow attempt to produce something "chic." -
