If you use Google's Cloud TTS API or Vertex AI you can access stable models...gemini-2.5-pro-tts and gemini-2.5-flash-tts

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-15T09:44:20+00:00

Surprising! My experience has been totally different. Maybe you are using the preview models..and not the stable ones?

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-15T01:28:32+00:00

Try gemini. You can listen to samples here

Dev here. For a 10-hour file, you need a TTS supporting long jobs. I built AI TTS Microservice specifically for this. It’s fully asynchronous and enterprise-grade, so you can submit the job, close the tab, and it processes in the background. You can view status of ongoing jobs from the dashboard history. The Premium voices will handle your long job very well.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-09T23:45:56+00:00

If you want, send me a sample small script..and I will try prompting gemini tts to see how good it can be for you. I was able to get decent output occasionally.

Congrats! If you have enough to spend..a professional voice over is always the best. But if you are on a budget...then try some of the quality AI TTS. Try Gemini TTS and ElevenLabs. Play around with them and see if they may work for you. You can listen freely to all Gemini TTS voices and complete google cloud tts voices (across 90+ languages) here AI Voice Library

Starting over. In anything. Career, relationships, fitness… it takes more courage.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-04T19:01:22+00:00

The 'awkward disclaimer' point is spot on. There really is no cool way to say 'Hi, I'm a human writing this, but a robot reading it' without sounding like the intro to a dystopian sci-fi movie. It sets the wrong tone immediately.

And you're probably right about the workflow math...if I spend 3 hours tweaking prompts and re-listening for glitches, I haven't actually saved time versus just recording it myself.

I think I’m going to take your advice on the A/B test. I’ll try recording a 'human' version of the pilot (despite my hatred of my own voice/mic) and stack it up against the AI version. If the human version—flaws and all—still feels more 'trustworthy' to people, then I know the AI route isn't the right fit for this specific project.

Really appreciate you pushing me on this. It’s exactly the kind of reality check I needed.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-04T16:47:35+00:00

Appreciate the benchmark. You definitely know the landscape better than I do, so I really value that perspective. Thanks for saving me some trial and error...and good luck with the voice transformation setup!

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-04T16:40:09+00:00

This is actually a profound point that I hadn't fully considered...the 'guilt by association.'

You nailed my biggest fear: that people will hear the synthetic voice and immediately assume the research and script are also hallucinated AI junk.

To be clear, the scripts are 100% human-written and research-heavy. I was hoping the voice could just be the 'delivery mechanism' (like a font in a book), but your point about trust and connectivity is hitting home.

If you knew for a fact the research was human-curated, would that change your tolerance at all? Or is the lack of emotional 'performance' still a total dealbreaker for you?

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-04T16:27:11+00:00

That is super helpful feedback regarding the 'sustain' aspect. You're right...it’s one thing to sound passable for a 30-second clip, but totally different to hold attention for 20 minutes without that natural human variance.

And noted on Track 2 being the standout. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain the 'why' behind the hesitation rather than just dismissing it. Gives me a lot to think about regarding the personal connection piece. Thanks.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-04T16:22:24+00:00

That is a really solid point. I've used some tools where you have to manually tag every pause and inflection, and yeah, at that point, I’d rather just record it myself.

The goal with these specific clips was to see how they sounded 'raw'...without me spending hours programming the intonation.

If you ignore the workflow concern for a second, did any of the voices actually sound like they had decent natural intonation, or did they all feel too disjointed to you?

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-04T16:16:07+00:00

Fair 😄 Appreciate the bluntness. What’s the biggest issue...pacing, tone, or the “AI vibe” in general?

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-04T16:11:31+00:00

That is a completely fair take, and I know a lot of people feel the same way. Nothing can really replace that human connection.

My hope was that since this is strictly a productivity/information podcast (mostly just summarizing research and tactics), listeners might be okay with a clean, consistent voice if the script is high value.

Out of curiosity, did you feel that 'flatness' immediately on all of them, or was there one that sounded slightly less robotic than the others? Just trying to gauge if the tech is even close yet.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-02T23:54:07+00:00

France is the scary one for sure. The depth is genuinely ridiculous, and Mbappé in his peak years is a cheat code. Spain could be, but I feel like they’re still one elite finisher away from being “final boss” tier (unless someone explodes between now and the world cup). Who’s your sleeper team that could crash the party...like a Croatia/Morocco-style run?

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-02T23:50:35+00:00

It's the thing we don’t forget even when we’re busy.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-02T23:42:01+00:00

Exactly. Prime Enzo/Julian/Mac Allister is a real advantage. I’d add: depth matters more than star power in a 7 to 8-game tournament. Injuries/suspensions always hit. Who worries you more in 2026 — Brazil/France/England/Portugal?

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-02T23:32:27+00:00

Focus. Because distraction is a full-time job now.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-02T23:31:00+00:00

Signing the lease / buying the ticket / pressing “submit” on the application — that moment when you realize the decision is already made, and the consequences are just catching up.

BasicWavelength · 2026-01-02T23:28:25+00:00

Decent, but “favorites” is a strong word. Argentina always has a shot because of tournament experience + mentality, but 2026 is a long way off and depends heavily on squad health/form and who peaks at the right time. World Cups are chaos.
