Face tracking has existed for years now. I frankly don't see what's different between what you described and FaceRig.



You're missing the point: I want a fake version of myself.

I want a model which is made photoreal with my own image, so it can be given a voice in real time with my words, but a filtered version of my facial expression and pose.

So how I look and act is essentially scriptable.


I think that’s already happening. You can buy a trained model of someone to do 24/7 live-streaming peddling products, or even black-mirror-esque bringing back deceased ones. Company in china selling this is Silicon Intelligence.
