The company is offering the new feature as part of a partnership with Speechify. Snoop Dogg and Gwyneth Paltrow are among the voices that can read you the news, and if you want an idea of what that might sound like, you can hear their AI voicesRelatedTo turn on the text-to-speech player, you can tap on a “play” icon you’ll see on the bottom bar while reading an article, and the player will let you choose things like reading speed and which voice to hear.
The text-to-speech feature is available now on iOS and is coming soon to Android, Stein says. I’ve tried it for a few minutes in the iOS app, and the voices are just okay — you can tell they’re AI voices, but as a way to listen to text articles, they get the job done.
