This is impressive overall, but I wonder if someone can provide some insight into, or confirmation of, an observation of mine.
I’m having a hard time describing it, but there’s a stiff, shiny, and plastic feel to a lot of these. You can really see it in the video of the woman wearing sunglasses. No one can, or at least likely wouldn’t, hold their eyebrow muscles that stiff for that long. Combined with the head and mouth movements, the expressiveness just feels off, almost animatronic. Does anyone else get that?
If you can describe it that just means the next version can avoid it. But what you describe sounds like modern soap operas which are plastic surgery expositions.
The last mona lisa doing shakespeare and the last ai girl doing multiple voices are extremely convincing, I think you over estimate just how intensely we look at things normally after we accept them. This is great for many things right now and will be greater once they can perfect all the subtle movements that make video worth watching over audio (easier information absorption and recall).
I agree, it looks uncanny. The immitation will get better and better. Sometimes in wondering why we’re fascinated with generating artificial humans when there are literally billions of humans that could be filmed with cameras.
