So I have no idea how this ended up in my youtube feed, but none-the-less it caught my eye. So the title is "AI sees humans for the first time", followed by "AI sees humans for the second time".

Now I have 2 reactions right away:
1. It's not AI, it's someone using some sort of motion capture system to effectively create a digital puppet. It's not facerig because this has a very custom background and the movement are far more advanced.
2. That voice sounds... somewhat authentic, but there's something not quite right about it. Could be a girl, could be a guy doing a voice.
Whoever it is, they certainly have an entertaining personality.
Did some digging, if you go back in the channel there's a bunch of videos of some guy named rogue shadow who apparently spends a lot of time in VR, even has one where he's showing a virtual night club he worked on in unity. He has one video just interviewing other users on VR chat (a program where you can change your character and just walk around and talk to other people around the world). He asks them a simple question, why do you come here? Most just want a general escape from their real life, a few admit they do it to escape gender dysphoria. He has one video that made a news story where one user started to have a seizure as you saw him shake on the floor virtually, and most of the other users were generally concerned but had no way to help him until he could start to speak again.
Anyway, whoever this is started a twitch channel where they game (and perhaps do more omegle video chats again). They just started a patreon page like 2 weeks ago and they already have $730/month in supporters. I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes a career.
