AnswerToSpeech
Use this node in question-answering pipelines to convert text Answers into SpeechAnswers. The answer and its context are read out into two audio files.
This node is experimental because of the dataclasses it uses (SpeechAnswer). Bear in mind that that they might change in the future.
