On Tuesday, Microsoft Research Asia unveiled VASA-1, an AI model that can create a synchronized animated video of a person talking or singing from a single photo and an existing audio track. In the future, it could power virtual avatars that render locally and don't require video feeds—or allow anyone with similar tools to take a photo of a person found online and make them appear to say whatever they want.

Great! When will this be included in teams? So that I can deepfake all meetings

I'll give it a photo of myself from 10 years ago so that my coworkers don't realize that I'm getting old.
