Virtual Voice Narrating a story generated by AI

Narration lacks human intonation so its difficult at times to tell when one character ends and another begins. Story jumps to next scene/chapter without tying into it. Conversations get confusing to follow. Story itself is amateur - effort but novice and unrealistic. A real human just can’t be replaced by a program. Which by-the-way was built by a human.
