As happens, the topic of AI replacing voice actors came up on ABC Local 
Radio Canberra on Tuesday afternoon. They played a sample of "Liam" 
reading one of my educational videos, which sounds remarkably like me, 
then talked to me.

As I explained, I used the synthetic voice to make short quick slideshow 
videos. These are created automatically from a slideshow with notes. 
The recording is from 2021 & the quality is steadily improving.
