I don't want to listen to unskilled voice-actors read a book to me. I definitely don't want some super awkward software voice that can't interpret the text to provide emotional color to their inflection. And this is not something I think is easily solvable by a 2023 AI startup.

I think the original thing was that audible would give bonuses for publishing books (it's mentioned in the video, but it's been a couple weeks since I watched it), so you would basically just make shitty books to get bonuses. of course this no longer works, and now there's also much more competition, so your crappy grift books aren't actually going to get you any meaningful amount of money, but the point is just to sell people a grift they can do that seems like it could work
