I tried it with several paragraphs of text. The many options offered—various voices with adjustable pitch, speed, and pauses, and customizable pronunciations for specific words and names—are attractive, and I can imagine a lot of potential uses. Like other voice synthesis software, though, it does not seem able to adjust the pauses and intonation to indicate emphasis and contrast the way a skilled human narrator does. I wonder if that will be coming as the AI becomes more meaning-aware.
