Starting this week, Audible will invite a limited number of audiobook narrators based in the United States to train AI on their voices.

Narrators will be able to ratify their synthetic voice for specific works and edit the pronunciation and pacing, while the trained AI will be utilized to create recordings.

Narrators who participate in the program will receive compensation on a title-by-title, royalty-sharing basis for any audiobooks produced using their AI voices, according to Audible.
