Narrating High-Spice Romance.
Theater Is Hard.: My side-hustle is that I’m a professional voice actor. I’ve been doing it my entire adult life, but I should be much further along in my career. I took a 14 year self-imposed hiatus after my voice coach locked me in his sound proof office and jerked himself off to me reading sample copy for chocolate pudding. I wrote my entire #MeToo narrative here, definitely read it or listen to me read it. Or you can just read about it on CNN.

I thought this article was really interesting because in the current age of AI there is only so many things that can be considered completely "safe" from being taken over. I have seen so many videos without a human VoiceOver but instead with an AI one to either make the video process easier or avoid having to hire a VoiceOver artist to cover it. I personally do not enjoy listening to audiobooks but I imagine many have been made using AI now. I think it is also interesting how people might prefer having an actual human voice for these "high spice romances". Perhaps this is the only job safe from AI. I also disagree a little with this because of the recent cases where people would take celebrities faces and AI generate pornographic material of them. I think as AI becomes more and more common in these "high spice romance" spaces people will become desensitized to it and actually begin seeking it out, like how many people who AI generate art are not put off by how it looks.
