| “Audiobook production has always had one problem: it’s expensive and slow. Recording, editing, distribution. Most authors skip it entirely. |
| Spotify just removed that excuse. They’re adding AI audiobook creation to Spotify for Authors using ElevenLabs, starting with an invite-only beta in June. English first, more languages later. No exclusivity lock-in, so authors keep full distribution rights. |

The Problem With AI Detection in Schools
What the research says and why it means a policy shift is overdue

“A recent study, AI Writing Detectors Are Ineffective, Unreliable, and Harmful by Louie Giray, brings together a growing body of evidence and makes a clear argument:
AI writing detectors are not reliable enough to be used in educational decision-making, and using them that way risks real harm to students.
