Playing around with ChatGTP, ElevenLabs voice generation, DAZ rendering and old skool phoneme extraction and 2D keyframing. 

Initial prompt for MollyBot (a Discord bot using DeVinci-3 to pretend to be Molly)

ElevenLabs then narrate that; they do a significantly better job at getting emphesis right than other text-2-speech systems I've looked at; likely it's doing sentiment analysis first, and using that to generate better text prompts

I initially planned to use some other AI tool for the voice over, but then I decided to go oldskool.

And ran that through Rhubarb Lip Synch system for phoneme extraction. 

Keyframes were then imported into Spine2D, and the whole thing rendered out as a .mov file for After Effects to composite together.
