Suitable tasks
Present an approved script in a short video using an authorised avatar.
Limits and checks
Human appearance establishes neither message accuracy nor voice or likeness rights.
A repeatable trial
Use an authorised avatar and fictional text with numbers and names. Check pronunciation, synchronisation, script fidelity and synthetic-media disclosure.
How to decide
Keep the video if the message is faithful, understandable and free of deceptive impersonation.
Frequently asked questions
Does a realistic avatar prove that a person spoke?
No. The context should make the synthetic presentation understandable.
