AUTHORS ASSEMBLE! Audible generative AI takeover | How this hurts Authors and Narrators

I cannot hold back on this topic. Audible has crossed the line with their bid to oust audiobook narrators with generative AI. We have to stand up for the artist and hard working individuals that are being pushed out with this bid to make audiobooks "accessible". There are more ways to make audiobooks accessible to authors without using generative AI. We need to raise our voices and say NO to Audible cutting author and narrators revenue before it's too late.
