This is so retarded. How can they raised so much money
Video are expensive to make? You pick up you phone you can already film and upload. Most videos online aren't Hollywood VFX/CGI. Doesn't need a $500M AI company to do that.

Videos are time consuming to produce due to errors, etc. An avatar won't require retakes.

Imagine it gets hacked and they start making videos of you doing crazy stuff
I'm at a point where I can just tell if the video is AI generated.
Awesome tech

How did they get to a $500 million dollar valuation? They don't own the AI code. They use an API.
WOW!! Happy to see this for Heygen. Especially because I chose them over other cloning companies (synthesia, pipio) for the same reasons. But the question is… can their avatars handle BRACES? 😁 kzread.info/dash/bejne/i4qqzpeBmsTAk5M.html
