AI avatars turn a script into a talking presenter — a cloned person or a designed character — combining face generation, lip-sync, and a synthetic voice. They scale training, marketing, and support video, and they require consent and disclosure when based on real people.

AI for Video: A Complete Guide to Intelligence in Video Products: From Models and Inference to Computer Vision, Speech, Search, and Generative Video
An AI avatar lets you produce presenter video without filming, but lip-sync quality and consent for real faces decide whether it ships. Volume 6 covers generative video in detail, together with speech, TTS and the AI feature lifecycle, so you can choose between avatar APIs and self-hosted lip-sync models for your product. Written by Nikolay Sapunov, CEO at Fora Soft.
