EXPERIMENTAL EPISODE
In this episode, we're doing something a bit different. Using voice cloning technology from Eleven Labs, I tried to make this episode a narration of an article I wrote, using an AI twin of my own voice.
I didn't quite get to the point where I could clone my own voice.
So, I scrapped that experiment (will return to it soon) and used an off-the-shelf pre-set British voice, a real "David Attenborough" type (legal disclaimer: not actually David Attenborough.
The voice will read an article I wrote, which was a reflection on a question posed in another podcast.
If none of this makes sense, it's okay — just sit back and have a listen.Want to dive deeper? Read more about remote work on the Remotely Serious website.
