I’d love to see the “Read Aloud” feature in ChatGPT become more interactive, and work similar to a podcast for longer bodies of text. This is what I would like to see:
- A Spotify/YouTube style playback bar so we have greater control of the audio, which makes revisiting certain sections far smoother.
- The ability to adjust playback speed from 0.5x to 2.0x.
- A live transcript: boldening/highlighting text as it goes along, similar to Speechify.
At the moment, it is far too basic and restrictive. The only controls available now are pause and skip/rewind 15s, which is pretty basic. I’m very much an audio learner, and would like far more control over the audio element. I would wager that I’m not on my own in this regard.
