    Okay… so honest question: how long did it take for you to close the linked video?

    In my case it was about 45 seconds. The weird hands/body language creeped me out and when combined with the synthetic voices I just couldn’t take it.

      I saw it all, albeit without audio. It honestly didn’t look that bad to me. They seemed a bit stiff and something was off with the hand gestures, other than that it was visually passable to me.

      I wonder how they did it though, and how procedural it can get.

      The voice didn’t sync up to the lips and hand gestures when I watched it. That was enough for me.

      Even AI have no clue what to do with their hands.

      I’m waiting for the youth version where the anchor is dropped into an endless runner game.

      I’m convinced the AI had the hand on a loop. It’s like watching someone’s first presentation in speech and debate class. It will look better eventually, but I doubt it’ll figure out the subtle emphasis great body language adds to speech.
