Use your OpenAI subscription to create audiobooksfree tier, from $4.99/mo▲174Hi HN, I wanted to get back on track with the current machine learning literature. When I found the free book "Understanding Deep Learning," I had the idea to listen to the book instead of reading it on a screen. So I've built a tool to turn PDFs into MP3s so I can listen to it. I'm now almost done with the book; I listen to the audio chapters every day on my commute to work. For regular text, you can simply use any text-to-speech API, but for technical text containing formulas, it's more contrived. I'm using ChatGPT to simplify the text for a better audio experience. Listening to formulas…

I generated 70k audiobooks with OpenAI Text-to-Speechfree tier, from $15/mo▲140Hey HN. I’m Ivan, hacker from Ukraine. For about a year, I was working on Listenly — an app to listen to text content with OpenAI's natural-sounding text-to-speech model. At some moment, I realized that it would be cool to take all the public domain e-books and create audio versions for them. So I did it... kind-of. It would cost an immense amount of money to generate all the audio right away (OpenAI TTS costs approximately $0.84/hour of audio; 11labs, for comparison, is 10 times more expensive). So, I took a more gradual approach. I took all the metadata from the Project Gutenberg…

Hi HN! I've been working on BookWith, an open-source e-book reader that integrates AI as your reading companion. The problem: Traditional e-readers are passive. When you encounter something unclear, you have to context-switch to search for it. Your highlights and notes remain isolated, and you can't easily connect ideas across different books. My solution: BookWith embeds an AI that maintains full context of what you're reading. It features: - Context-aware AI chat: Ask questions about the current page/chapter and get instant answers - AI podcast generation: Automatically converts book…
