Voice AI for Audiobooks & More
Keyword: Audio
Speaker: Steve Higgs
Description: Audiobooks are expensive to create, right? What if you could produce them for less than the cost of a decent restaurant meal without diminishing the quality? Don't believe me? I'm going to shock you, and it's not just for audiobooks.

Bio: Steve Higgs
I think of myself as one of the lucky people who has made this into a career. It took me five years to write my first book and then I wasted a year and a half trying to get a publishing deal before I stumbled into the concept of self-publishing. I didn't even know it was a thing. Book 1 went live in June 2017 and buoyed by the excitement, I wrote book 2 in five months. I sold about $18.00 worth of books by the end of the year.
I quit my job in September 2019, just eight weeks after attending my first 20Books conference. By then I had fifteen books under my belt, was taking $5000.00 a month, and had been grinding flat out for many months to get to a point where I could go full-time.
By dedicating myself to always learning one more thing and focusing hard on marketing and selling my books, I have been able to generate a seven-figure income. I have written more than eighty books, I have a small press that will generate circa $250000.00 this year, a translation service, four assistants, and I am still just scratching the surface of what is possible.

I went and tried it out and it's amazing. I didn't realise what a thrill it would be to hear my book narrated by someone else. It coped pretty well with the fantasy names, too.
I can see AI voices getting good enough to be at the level of really good voice actors a long, long time before AI is up for writing anything worth reading.
Soon A.I. will be writing Steve Higgs's books for him. Will he be happy about that?
You must not ever use AI. It's so far from being able to write alone it's crazy.
