Synthesia avatars are close enough to ship
A small, true opinion about Synthesia from someone who uses it daily.
I've used this one long enough to have a real opinion, not a first-week impression.
Synthesia gets you a talking-head avatar with no camera, and I lean on that more than the feature list.
The moment it let me down was specific: the avatars still read as avatars. That's the kind of failure you remember.
What changed my habit wasn't a new model. It was realizing I'd stopped double-checking, and the one time it mattered, it showed.
The tool isn't the problem. The habit around it is.
