Then he used his fight money to buy two of every animal on earth. And then he herded them onto a boat, and then he beat the crap out of every single one.

Fantastic! Please do the Thirty-Six Stratagems!

should be called "sun tzus the art of filler", blud had to say every sentence four times. reinforce the right, the left is weak, reinforce the left the right is weak, bro we get it

[@yl5935]

A better title for “The Art of War” should be “How to be a General for idiots” because the book was written for noble snobs who knew nothing about warfare. That’s why Sun Tzu repeats a lot of what he says in the book

[@kudjo24]

I was waiting on my current Art of War audio book for this to come out, YOU THE MAN

[@AWACS_Snowblind]

On a more positive note than the _"Holy shit this is scary, the AI will replicate us"_ etc: this has AMAZING potential for the Fallout modding community. Voice acting? Who needs it.

[@strayed1615]

Ah....Wayne June. Forever immortal like Joshua Graham now is. I for one welcome our new AI overlords giving our kids bedtime stories

[@j_west7219]

I love this so much. The voice, the book, the setting of it feels perfectly consistent. Joshua absolutely would have read this book.

[@raphaelschafer4772]

Can you do Ulysses as well?

[@jonnyboi841]

That would be awesome

[@NeoVault_]

Can't have Ulysses unless he drops something about *the bear and the bull* every other minute.

[@derigel9783]

It is actualy impessive what AI can do. Her is what I reccon that makes it so good. He breaths. He gets loud and firery. He get quiet and pronounced.

[@illeagle666]

This is beautiful, really great read. Only thing that makes me sad is that we’re kind of benefiting from the actor’s voice without him gaining anything from it. :/

[@dashiellgillingham4579]

We should have a legal system in place to protect the rights of people to their own voices, such that they or their estate will be paid for work their voice does even through use of a tool like this.

[@1toncheese]

@@dashiellgillingham4579 hahahaha were not the problem the corporations trying to force voice actors into signing away their rights to their voices are the problem

[@standman-ft7zo]

Some sweet, succulent passive income.

[@omni0414]

@YWL if text to speech ai companies bought actors and actresses voices to use, at least theyd get something from it

[@itchin4scratches]

who ? and who cares. when he no longer exists physically then what? cant hear him anymore because of greed and copyright even if his skull has worms sigh die die die

[@Dev_Six]

This is the definition of art.

[@cg-kn5dh]

More like the definition of reddit

[@Corax186]

You guys realise we can have fully voiced Joshua companion in NV now?

[@chillemdafoe1738]

11:38 Perfect example of why im so fucking perplexed at how natural this sounds
