Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Spotify introduced recaps they create a audio summary with ai.

I don't know if there are some ai features are planned.

Why would this be helpful?

Help coming back to a book after some pause.
Better then restart the whole book.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

It should be optional and allow for local self hosted models.
Maybe it could be a nighttime job to generate a 1 minute summary of what happend.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.30.0
