"AI will continue to improve. It might change the world; arguably, it already has. But for now—and perhaps always—it is no substitute for the human voice. Voice is what we use to communicate with one another. Voice is the sound we make as we navigate the unknown—our echolocation, mapping the world, attempting to place ourselves within it. Voice encodes experience, loss, pain, joy. We don’t acquire voice in spite of failure, but through it. Because of it."
