How much would it cost to narrate all the posts on Lesswrong? Or above various karma cutoffs?
Cause there’s a lot of good posts under 100 karma (including many from the sequences), so I wonder what’s the tradeoff.
It’s unlikely we’ll ever actually GENERATE narrations for every post on LessWrong (distribution of listening time would be extremely long-tailed), but it’s plausible if the service continues that we’ll be able to enable the player on all LW posts above a certain Karma threshold, as well as certain important sequences. If you have specific sequences or posts in mind, feel free to send them to us to be added to our list!
Perhaps instead of, or in addition to, using a karma cutoff, it could be request based? So you’d have that Icon on all posts, and if someone clicks it on an old article that doesn’t yet have a narration it will ask them whether they want it to be narrated.
Yep, if the pilot goes well then I imagine we’ll do all the >100 karma posts, or something like that.
We’ll add narrations for all >100 karma posts on the EA Forum later this month.
