Just talked with Max Headroom and Michael Scott - my wife is an office fan so knows the references, and I know enough Max to ask the right things. Overall, a fun experience. I think that MH was better than Scott. Max was missing the glitches and moving background but I'd imagine both of those are technically challenging to achieve. Michael Scott's mouth seemed a bit wrong - I was thinking Michael J Fox but my wife then corrected that with Jason Bateman - which is much more like it. He knew Office references alright, but wasn't quite Steve Carell enough. The default while it was listening could do with some work, I think - that was the least convincing bit; for Max he would have just glitched or even been completely still I would think. Michael Scott seemed too synthetic at this point. Don't get me wrong, this was pretty clever and I enjoyed it, just trying to say what I found lacking without trying to sound like I could do better (which I couldn't!). | ||

Thanks for the feedback. This is definitely a demo where every piece matters for maximizing the enjoyment factor. We spent the most effort on optimizing video quality and latency, but not a lot on tweaking the character prompts that go into the LLM. Turns out that matters a lot too. |
