Searching for audiobooks can be exhausting. I'm searching for a history audiobook and listened to a sample. The narrator sounds strangely like the Instagram AI voiceover guy.
I want to try to spend money on actual voice actors so I do a little research. I find "Bill Caufield" has recorded over a hundred books for this publisher since December 2023 but has no website or profile that I can find.
I'm still not 100% sure if the voice is AI or human. Any opinions?
