Aren't there AI avatars that do this? |

Yeah, probably. I was after something more retro, and that would fit in with my office and workbench in the background. Something hands-on would also give at least a tiny sense of engagement during the meeting even if I couldn't take it seriously. |

doing Snap style face modifications for your manager as he's talking would be popular |

Believe me, that was going on in private team chat apart from the main conference call. Always does. |

//puppet// read as 'PupPet', a trained dog who wears a tie and sits very still gazing directly into the camera, except for hanging out tongue ("Great idea. When's lunch?'), moue-face mouth ("Tell me more"), or a sneeze (dogspeak for "Let's go!"). |

If being able to view body language is important to society then people need to work in the same environment again. I think that boat has sailed. |

Zoom meetings with vampires are pretty easy to imitate. |

Interesting that the groundswell has changed from clamoring to get on Zoom and social media to desperately finding ways to avoid it. Give it 5 years and you'll be able to lease an AI avatar that's much smarter than you and put it into your job meetings. But you still get to cash the check. |

[sninc] Company? We dont need no stinkin company. Its going to be a new definition of nepotism, when the AI managers and board members of hundreds of companies can order up their own fellows/maidens from Central Avatar Supply who are smarter, faster, healthier, less prone to issues, and more reliable that the meat employees. Theyll just tell us to stay home and theyll take care of it. One Big Company, dedicated to serving the meat beings globally if only they would stay out of the way. There will be no Wild Humans. |
