We work with T3Audio on the narration, and I think they don’t really update it after initial publication. It costs us some non-trivial amount of money (like $1 or so) to narrate a post, which means we can’t just re-narrate it on every edit without opening ourselves up to burning a bunch of money without reason. Not sure what the ideal thing here is.
Maybe instead narrating posts automatically when published, the poster could be shown a message like “Do you want to narrate this post right now? Once narrated, the audio cannot be changed.” And if they say no then there’s a button they can press to narrate it later (e.g. after editing). And maybe you could charge $1 if people want to change the audio after accepting their one free narration?

I’m not sure what’s the best solution in general. For this post specifically, maybe we could drop the narration?
On the other hand it was fun getting to hear an older version of the post and see what changed!
