Hello all Hunters! πŸ‘‹ Thank you first to @ryanhoover for giving us permission to animate and bring his toon to life with our AI! The PH community can now create content with Ryan's toon on our site and We have spiffed it up on alethea.ai with a nice fancy suit! This was his original toon that inspired the idea: https://twitter.com/rrhoover/sta... My team and I are proud to present the world's first photorealistic, emotive and intelligent AI Avatar Studio. Now anyone can build their AI avatar, seed them with intelligence and own the underlying asset through NFTs. You only need a single high-fidelity image to do this and we'll take care of the rest. Here's what's supported for sign-ups today: - 8 Free Credits (each credit is 30 seconds of Video) - 12 Languages (40 for Premium) - 1 Neutral Emotion (with more for Enterprises) - Voice to Video - Upload voice and get video output on characters - Video messages - bring your characters to life Our product is in Beta and I am really grateful for all of the use-cases emerging so far from top-tier Fortune 500 brands, Creators, and the amazing Virtual Beings community on Facebook (huge shoutout to them) Future Iteration: We were recently accepted into the Beta program for Open AI's GPT-3 engine and our early private demos have blown us and our researchers away. GPT-3 is going to transform media and entertainment, licensed chatbots, and the Avatars space in a fundamental way. The cool part here is that all you need is GPT-3 generated text to generate Video output (using our text-to-Video Animation API) and animate them with high-quality lip-sync with a rapid turnaround time. PS: If you're keen on learning more about how we view the World and our Ethics, I invite you to view our presentation, "We live in the age of Kalyug and Kayfabe" found on our resources page and it is inspired by the Great Philosophers of the 20th and 21st century like Hannah Arendt. Eric Weinstein and others. We view AI-generated content as a transformative piece of the puzzle that will allow us to reclaim our truth. Today's release is a step in the direction of truly democratizing CGI and enabling creativity at a massive scale!

Arif, this is brilliant! The AI Avatar Studio is smashing. 5G will turbo-charge the use of this for various use-cases, specifically in user verification in XR for digital identity management and of-course user generated entertainment.
Valeria Kholostenko
Super cool, and of course, I want one!
Arif Khan
@vkholostenko Thank you Valeria, and you'll have one too!

AI Characters combined with distributed ownerships via blockchains can seed novel shared economies wherein communities could run collectively owned marketing businesses by monetising such characters. With AI and blockchains so many new business models are going to be created in the coming decade.
Arif Khan
@sandeepnailwal Thank you Sandeep. You and the team at Matic Network truly understand how transformative and powerful blockchains can be in enabling a new era of Ownership-based economies around these AI-generated intelligent characters
Steve Ogden
This looks really interesting, and I'm impressed with the technology. I'd like to explore more, but even though 'Premium' is mentioned, I can't seem to find any pricing anywhere.
Arif Khan
@stephanosprimus Hey Steven, thanks for the feedback. This is somewhat hidden under the "Create your own Avatar" option, and we'll be making this more explicit - Thank you and feel free to drop me a note if you need any help with pricing.
Ofer Rotem
There are many use cases for this. Avatars in VR, film characters, memes. Owner verification. Can't wait to see how Alethea evolves.
Arif Khan
@oferrotem Thank you Ofer, you may find this helpful too : https://arr.am/2020/09/15/the-ge...

Quite something Arif! Amazing. I hope we can pilot a couple of AI Avatars in Q1/Q2 - 2021 with a couple of our eCommerce power sellers which will hopefully drive engagement & sales. This could be a unique case study for eCommerce sellers in SEA. There are operational inventory challenges my team is looking to resolve first before we introduce something novel like this. Keep it up champ!
Arif Khan
@ibrahim_musa1 Thanks @ibrahim! Absolutely, Direct-to-Avatar E-commerce is growing steadily and now small and medium businesses can benefit by putting a face of their choice to their homegrown brands.
Neeraj Kashyap

I am loving the fact how many AI image products are coming out here recently. Yesterday Sketch AI portraits launched and now this. Congrats on creating this team! Keep up innovating :)
Arif Khan
@arthurbostic Thanks - I think we are in for a cambrian exlposion in machine generated content and start-ups will be able to punch way above their weight to compete with the bigger boys :)
Robert Dougherty
Your product video is hilarious! In all honesty though, this looks really cool. I am looking forward to giving this a try.
Arif Khan
@robertdougherty5 Thank you for your kind comment Rob. Glad it made you laugh :) And happy to hear how you get on.
Clifford Gehee
This is awesome! I wonder how a user can define as to what the toon does in the video? E.g. can you choose to let the characters make presentations etc?
Arif Khan
@cliffordgehee hi Clifford, yes definitely - in the free plan you get a talking head and body video. For our enterprise customers, we provide many more use-cases.
