Customer Reviews
Love it but keep it simple
The music in the most recent episodes is to much. I love the simplicity of getting to the point in the older episodes without the distraction of music in the background.
UPDATED REVIEW Improved AI Reader
In previous critiques, I noted that the bite-sized tech/AI news updates delivered by the podcast were valuable, yet the voice narration provided by ElevenLabs AI detracted significantly from the experience. It was, frankly, too distracting for me to appreciate the content fully.
Recently, however, there has been a notable improvement in the audio delivery. Whether ElevenLabs has refined their technology or the producers have transitioned to a new text-to-speech engine, the host—referred to as "Alex"—now offers a far less intrusive listening experience.
While I maintain that employing a human narrator would enhance the quality of the podcast, and lessen backlash on jobs being taken by AI, the current voice is no longer so grating that it overshadows the value of the information being presented. Kudos to the team for addressing this critical feedback, at least.
Interesting information
I realize it’s an AI generated voice, but the accent is so strange
