Chrome's reading mode will read articles out loud
Chrome is experimenting with a text-to-speech feature for its browser's reading mode on desktop. The feature can apparantly be found on Chrome Canary, Google’s bleeding edge version of Chrome, X user Leopeva64 reports.
If accessible, users can click on the play button at the top of an article in reading mode, to have Google read the text. Based on the video shared by Leopeva64, Google still has to work on the feature and make it better, as the voice seems robotic.
Chrome for desktop will also have the option to "read aloud" articles, the initial implementation of this feature (in the Canary version) is pretty basic but it works, in this link you can see a video with the feature in action:https://t.co/UMAzrWKaWo

Google is late launching such a feature, as Microsoft has already gone ahead with a robust text-to-speech feature in its browser Microsoft Edge.
