  Eventually someone will implement one of these really good recent ones as open source and then it will be on replicate etc. right now the open source ones like SadTalker and Video Retalking are not live and are unconvincing.

  Having a delay, where people can see what's coming down the pipe, does have value. In a year there may/will be a open source model. But knowing that this is possible is important to know. I'm fairly clued in, and am constantly surprised at how fast things are changing.

Translation: "We're attempting to preserve our moat, and this is the correct PR blurb. We'll release an API once we're far enough ahead and extracted enough money." Like somebody on Ars noted "anybody notice it's an election year?" You don't need to release an API, all online videos are now suspicious authenticity. Somebody make a video of Trump or Biden's eyes following the mouse cursor around. Real videos turned into fake videos.
