Video tutorials with AI-generated speech

How do you create your video tutorials? Here is an example where we used for Axinom Mosaic one of the modern text-to-speech tools: (kudos to Nipuni Madanayake).

How does it sound for you? For me it's still a bit "robotic", but it's a native speaker pronunciation (which is not an obvious thing for a non-UK non-US company). And what is even more interesting for me with my passion for continuous delivery - it allows to create a script, store it in git, and GENERATE the audio during build time - same as what you do with any other software build artifacts.

Now you can make modifications to the original script - they are all nicely trackable through git, and new builds can be produced anytime. Compare with an effort you have to make to record such a screencast yourself.

There is still a part with clicking and screen-recording - remains manual, but we are working on it!
