17 books across four narration types (all public-domain text from Project
Gutenberg; synthetic narration is clearly labeled — no quality claims vs humans):
Human narration — LibriVox
- Pride and Prejudice · A Christmas Carol · The Time Machine · The Call of the Wild · The Wonderful Wizard of Oz · Peter Pan · Frankenstein · The War of the Worlds · Dracula · The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
AI — Kokoro TTS (Abookify's open-weights voice, word-synced)
- Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (
af_heart) · The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (am_michael) · Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (af_bella) · The Wind in the Willows (bm_george)
AI — Project Gutenberg neural TTS (PG × Microsoft × MIT; near-perfect alignment)
- The Call of the Wild (AI) — an A/B pair with the LibriVox human reading · Treasure Island
Radio drama — adaptation (low text-alignment by design; shows the honest directional coverage readout)
- An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge — Escape (CBS, 1947)
