“On the audiobook production itself, Joel and I collaborated.”
“Building on pipelines that I've developed for other projects and leaning into 11 Labs' voice design for casting and character consistency, it took Joel a very manageable number of reviews and just a couple hundred dollars of inference for us to reach a final product that we're proud of.”
“And while this episode does happen to be brought to you in part by 11 Labs, and I think you will agree that this is an impressive showcase of their technology.”
