It's awesome for very short texts. Like a single long sentence. For even a bit longer sequences it seems to be losing adherence to the initial photo and also venture into uncanny valley with exaggerated facial expressions.
A product that might be build on top of this could split the input into reasonable chunks, generate video for each of them separately and stitch them with another model that can transition from one facial expression into another in a fraction of a second.
Additional improvement might be feeding the system not with one image but with a few expressing different emotional expressions. Then the system could analyze the split input to find out in which emotional state each part of the video should be started on.
On unrelated note ... generated expressions seem to be relevant to the content of the input text. So either text to speech might understand language a bit or the video model itself.
