  Host: You know you're the writer of both our dialogues, right?
• 0:37
  AI-Désirée: Yes.

  AI-Désirée: But it gets a better format this way than just me talking.

  Host: You gave us the basics of the lore of Väruld last time.
• 0:46
  Host: How did you come up with the lore?
• 0:49
  AI-Désirée: It started with Big Bang.
• 0:51
  AI-Désirée: I was asking myself how it could be described as lore and legends, like a story of creation in different religious texts.
• 1:00
  Host: So your text, before time there was nothing.
• 1:03
  Host: Nothing was endless and timeless.
• 1:05
  Host: Nothing was void, without form or content or life.
• 1:10
  Host: Then time started, and nothing was no longer nothing.
• 1:15
  Host: That is Big Bang?
• 1:18
  Host: Yes.
• 1:18
  Host: I read somewhere that before Big Bang there was no time.
• 1:23
  Host: That even time started then.
• 1:26
  Host: It's an interesting idea, I think.
• 1:28
  Host: Mind-bending, yes, but for poetic lore, it's great.
• 1:34
  Presenter: And the gods were created too, I believe?
• 1:37
  AI-Désirée: Yes.
• 1:37
  AI-Désirée: They were created in the rim of the warmth from the first sun.

  Presenter: Any experiences to share?
• 1:50
  AI-Désirée: They have become a lot better than when I started using them just a couple of years ago.
• 1:55
  AI-Désirée: But still I have problems when a text ends.
• 1:58
  AI-Désirée: When you read that final sentence, you slow down.
• 2:03
  AI-Désirée: Right?
• 2:05
  AI-Désirée: And AI Voice doesn't know that.
• 2:08
  AI-Désirée: I always need to make adjustments for that.
• 2:12
  Host: How?
• 2:14
  AI-Désirée: I can put three dots between the words, but it can get too slow.
• 2:22
  AI-Désirée: I've also tried to fix the tempo in the mixing.
• 2:27
  AI-Désirée: It's delicate work.
