Description
Your go-to podcast where we break down the latest cryptocurrency news into easy-to-understand insights.
Step into the enchanting world of 'Phoebe's Birmingham Beat,' the GenAI-powered podcast. This project is more than just a technical feat; it's a bridge between written words and the immersive world of audio storytelling. Artificial intelligence is not just a tool here. It is a co-author, editor and translator that transforms texts to make them perfect for listening. It gets rid of repetition, improves wording and tries to preserve a unique style. It's so nice to hear how accurately the voiceover captures intonations of surprise or annoyance. Sometimes the results are funny and weird - I love it. My favourite part is the wrong accents, numbers and off-the-cuff greetings.
