Creepy or cool?

AI Corporate Innovation Culture

⚡ Creepy or cool?This new video calling feature removes the original eyes of the speaker, replacing them with artificially generated ones that always look at the camera.The idea is to create a deeper sense of connection during video calls by giving away the feeling of being looked straight in the eye.Creepy or cool?Source: https://lnkd.in/dUc5zxaj--Intrapreneur?
