My audiobook contracts also require human narrators. My fans and my work deserve only the best! And the best is actual humans who understand context and nuance!
But yeah, authors, you, your work and your fans deserve better than "AI," so tell your publishers. It's an actual competitive advantage.

Actors, translators, artists, editors …
And of course authors as AI books start to flood the zone.
