Here's a fun project that you could try. Use TTS to transcribe books but make the transcriptions feel more realistic. Give each character in the book a unique voice. Leading characters should have voices based on their personalities. Use quote extraction and character attributtion to tie characters to lines. Try to do convey the human qualities with EmotionML, SSML, or some kind of semantic analysis.

The best would be a TTS system at the level of OpenAI's but with voice selection like GCP TTS so you can get quality and a range of voices.

Copyright would probably spike any monetization effort but you could try. It would be nice to have an open source tool for this though! :)
