Archive link … unfortunately, as I feared, the audio didn’t work for me. Here is the direct link to the clip.
I edited the title because people thought this was about actual podcasts. It just generates conversational audio about the content.
Google discovered how to insert audio ads into text.
“Innovation”
There are ads in them now? I didn’t encounter any when using it a few days ago.
I just generated one and didn’t hear any ads.
Why does Google do anything?
A 10 minute audio has far more valuable ad inventory than a few paragraphs of text.
I’m sure they’ll start inserting ads as soon as they add the inventory to Google Ads Manager.
Sometimes they just do research. Like when their employees made transformers and nothing came of them until Open AI capitalized on it.
They make cool stuff, but they are ultimately an advertising company (as in that’s their main source of revenue). So by all means enjoy the cool stuff, just proceed with caution and of course assume nothing is permanent!
