Nice... All it needs now is automated talking heads. I guess the AI for that will be available in the not-too-distant future. (/s)

  We are there already - we have synthetic voice narration, whose bland perfection I find insufferable and that go perfectly with a smiling animated cartoon talking head to present a self-study webinar. We advise our readers to eschew violence against their corporate laptop monitor.

    > synthetic voice narration, whose bland perfection I find insufferable Yeah, AI got better than humans at this too. You need to inject randomness, force the tool to "make mistakes", so it feels more authentic.

      Or goofy jokes, which I haven't seen LLM do well yet.

  You can already get things like newsreader video footage where an actor has had their voice sampled and their likeness animated, such that they appear to read out whatever text you feed in. For a small fee. I attended a talk a while back by a guy who had automated summarising some daily stock news, feeding it through this service and published to YouTube. He was making a modest amount of money out of it.
