I'm the faculty collaborator on Zach's project. He's developing a course assignment structure that integrates a specific type of generative AI (e.g., ChatGPT) into a traditional philosophy writing assignment. I'm especially excited about what he's up to! 3/3.

I'm looking for an application that can read Word and pdf docs aloud. (While I know technically the Mac operating system accessibility program can, I have found it pretty bad, needing to restart it all the time, etc). Any recommendations?
