Tldrbot is the latest bot from Shardcore (previously, previously, previously) that slurps up great novels, algorithmically summarizes them to 1% of their length, then spits out audio files of a synthetic Scottish woman’s voice reading those summaries aloud.
This bot takes works of literature and algorithmically summarizes them, a chapter at a time, to 1% of their original length.
