Matt Wolfe tests Gen Avatar 4, an AI tool that generates talking-head videos from a photo, script, and voice. He runs demos with his own avatar and a real photo, testing lip-sync quality on scripts ranging from short clips to about two minutes long.
Hey Gen Avatar 4. This one allows you to upload just one photo with a script and your voice and it will actually turn it into an AI avatar. Talking head video. I'm going to toss in my social media avatar here that I always use. Leave it as portrait. I can also upload or record audio I've previously trained my voice into. Hey Gen. So I'll just go ahead and select that. Let's type a script and we'll generate our video here. Make sure to subscribe to Matt Wolf. Not bad. This time I'll upload a real image of myself here and let's record some audio this time and I'm just going to be kind of silly. Let's see.
I wonder what it's gonna do with this.
Slightly longer this time. Maybe about two minutes, but let's go ahead and check this out.
I wonder what it's gonna do with this. Who knows? Okay, so that was pretty cool. Only thing that was a little weird was the hand. There's no hand in the original image, so it just sort of made one up. And it's a little fuzzy, but the lip syncing is. I don't know, it's kind of awesome to me.
