Illuminate transforms computer science papers from arXiv.org into AI-generated audio conversations, tailored to users’ learning preferences. The tool allows users to search for papers or input PDF links, generate up to five audio discussions daily, and save conversations to a personal library. By converting dense academic text into digestible audio dialogues, Illuminate offers researchers and students an alternative way to absorb complex computer science concepts while multitasking or on the go.

This is nice. I don’t understand why only a few minutes of the audio is made available. For instance, the “attention is all you need” paper has only 4 minutes of audio available for play when the entire audio has a duration of 34 minutes and 25 seconds.
