Audible is testing an AI-powered search feature The article discusses Audible's pilot of an AI-powered search feature aimed at enhancing users' ability to find specific content within audiobooks and podcasts. The core thesis is that this feature could revolutionize the way listeners interact with audio content, making it more accessible and user-friendly. Key points include: 1. Functionality: The AI feature allows users to search by keywords or phrases, navigating directly to relevant sections of the audio, which addresses common frustrations with traditional listening experiences. 2. User Feedback: Initial tests indicate that users appreciate the enhanced efficiency and precision of the search function, highlighting its potential for improving listener engagement. 3. Improved Experience: The technology could help users discover content more readily, fostering deeper connections to material, particularly in educational and self-help genres. The author concludes that if successful, this feature could set Audible apart in the competitive audio marketplace and enhance overall user satisfaction. The article emphasizes the growing role of AI in personalizing and streamlining digital content consumption.

Do you enjoy listening to audiobooks or audio stories? When it comes to the voice delivering the content, do you prefer a human voice or an AI-generated one? As a voice-over artist with over a decade of experience, I’ve been amazed by the rise of AI in the creative industry. However, I still find that AI voices fall short for audiobooks, series, and stories. While AI-generated voices might work for shorts or corporate videos, they often lack the emotional depth needed for engaging storytelling. For me, there's a unique authenticity that only a human voice can provide, and that’s why I still value the human touch in this field. AI voices just don’t seem to capture the nuances and emotions that a skilled voice actor brings to the table. What are your thoughts on this? I’d love to hear your perspective and discuss it further! #AI #Bots #VoiceoverArtist #Audiobooks #VoiceNarration

In a world where we’re bombarded with content every second, it’s consistency that gets you noticed—and that includes your audio. Think of audio branding as your brand’s voice. Whether it’s the intro music to your podcast or the sonic signature that plays before your ads, those sounds become synonymous with your brand identity. 🎧 Recognition The more consistent your audio is across all platforms—whether it’s podcasts, audiobooks, or video content—the quicker people will start to associate those sounds with your brand. And with recognition comes trust. 🎙 Emotional Connection Audio isn’t just about being heard; it’s about being felt. A solid audio identity evokes emotion and strengthens your brand story. It makes your audience feel something—and emotion drives action. 🔊 Professionalism Clear, high-quality audio signals that your brand is professional and trustworthy. Shaky sound quality can make even the most solid business look second-rate. Don’t let poor audio be the weak link in your branding strategy.

Friday Editing Tip (All Genres): Audiobooks can help you develop your ear for language. A lot of my students did not have people constantly reading to them while growing up. That means that they often don’t “hear” text in their heads when they read. Sometimes that means what looks okay on the page doesn’t sound the way they’d hoped or thought. Of course, there is always the great advice to read one’s work aloud. Still, that’s less helpful if you don’t have the rhetorical or sonic context to evaluate how it sounds. Audiobooks are awesome for developing that context. You can buy or rent audiobooks or join an audio streaming service, but my favorite is to borrow from the local library. #HMLOneonta #editingservices #editingtips #editing
