Melania Announces AI-Narrated Audiobook
Melania: A Memoir tells the story of the former First Lady growing up in Slovenia, a European country sandwiched between Croatia and Austria, before moving to New York City and joining the world of high fashion. She also details “the serendipitous meeting with Donald Trump, a chance encounter that forever changed the course of her life,” according to the book blurb.
Melania announced her book on Instagram, writing in a the caption beneath a photo of the book, “Our lives are shaped by our experiences, challenges, and achievements. For the first time, I share my journey with you, in my new memoir, Melania.”
Taking to X to announce the audiobook release, the mother-of-one wrote, “I am proud to share with you MELANIA — The AI Audiobook, narrated entirely using artificial intelligence — in my own voice. My Story. My Perspective. The Truth.”
Social Media Reactions
Despite her apparent excitement for the launch, users on X were not impressed by her use of AI. "Melania outsourcing her own voice to AI is peak Trump: too lazy to read her own story but happy to fake sincerity with a robot," one user wrote. "Guess 'I really care' really means 'I really don't.'"
"Why wouldn't you read it yourself?" another asked. "That's disappointing."
"Guess that's peak laziness for you," said a third.
"Well considering she probably didn't write it herself it makes sense she doesn't want to read it!" said another.
"What a joke," a final user wrote.
