AI
Apple call it Learning machine. I would just be happy if Siri is smarter than Wshe who should not be name. Right now she is smarter than Siri.
Voice Used in Outro
The voice that I use in the outro is Belle from ElevenLabs. I hope that helps in trying to figure out which voice that is being used. ;)
Eleven Labs!
Well, you can listen to voices from Eleven Labs by going to ElevenLabs.io Unfortunately, I think Belle is one of the voices which is only available if you have a subscription, those run about $5 per month. Belle is a fantastic voice and can be used for reading blocks of text. I too would love to have this voice as a synthesizer, not yet available, but maybe some day.
I want her...
For reading my Kindle books!
Wait ..what.. were you thinking?

Great Episode, and Agreed...
I had the distinct pleasure of listening to this episode a day or so ago, and really enjoyed it. That voice used at the end is lovely. I bookmarked the Eleven Labs website and have been meaning to check them out. Additionally, I downloaded the Eleven Labs version of Michael Feir's book and am eventually going to share that with a sister. In the meantime, you guys keep up the great work.
