It's great, but you need to edit it in order for it to work. Download the extension and find where this extension's files are stored. This extension has a file called script.js. Edit the file. Replace the line of code on line 47 with: let currentMoveActiveGame = document.querySelector("l4x kwdb.a1t"); It will then work.

Doesn't work anymore. But, what would be ground breaking and new is if you used elevenlabs.io voice synthesis AI to make the voices sound more natural or make them sound like a celebrity.
