AI voice reader

The computer narration is amazing in that it is able to add intonation in some places.
The computer narration is also amazingly bad in that it puts the wrong intonation in many places. It also was baffled by things that humans would find obvious. Example: 1965 = one thousand nine hundred and sixty five.
Overall, the computer narration is about the equivalent to a totally new narrator who doesn’t really understand the process, it’s not completely unusable, but given the number of folks who are looking to break into the industry, and work for low rates, it is unnecessary.
The stories standard narrative from JDY, not highly polished, but very enjoyable in a folksy down-to-earth kind of way.

Believable scenario

Finally, a prepper story that doesn’t border on or stray fully into the absurd. Nice, well developed scenario.
