Episode 91: How far has AI video really come—and what happens when your digital self can work, teach, or sell for you? Matt Wolfe (https://x.com/mreflow) and Maria Gharib (https://uk.linkedin.com/in/maria-gharib-091779b9) sit down with Victor Riparbelli (https://x.com/vriparbelli), CEO and co-founder of Synthesia, the company leading the charge in AI-generated avatars that can communicate in over 140 languages.

Victor’s background includes pioneering research in AI video, growing Synthesia since 2017 to become an industry leader in lifelike, customizable avatars used for everything from business training to personalized marketing at scale.

This episode dives deep into what the rise of AI video agents means for the business world, what it takes to create realistic digital avatars (hint: it’s all about the body language), and how lowering the cost and complexity of video creation is changing internal communication and customer engagement. Plus, hear Synthesia’s ethical approach to deepfakes, licensing data, and critical business use cases that work right now (and not just as novelty). If you've ever wondered how close we are to having your AI twin closing deals or teaching your kids, this is the one to check out.
