Hi HN,
I wanted to read PG's essays but for such long content, I prefer audio. So I made a podcast out of his essays.<p>I generated the audio automatically with Amazon Polly, AWS's lifelike text-to-speech offering. It reads impressively well like a human. I thought you'd find it useful. It's available on iTunes as well (you'll find the link on the website)<p>It was not all straightforward though. For example, there is currently a limit of 1500 characters to be translated per request. I also have to merge all of the audio parts in order.<p>I'd like to invite you to check it out. If you have any advice on how to improve this, do let me know.<p>Jeshan.
